subject: Slow Computer? It May Need Servicing [print this page] Just like an automobile or any equipment, a computer will need to be maintained with some check-ups and servicing over time. There are varying recommendations on how often your system will need to be "optimized" or organized, but generally every month or so is usually OK. So how do you go about this maintenance? Start with the registry, it can be a simple slow computer fix.
The PC's windows registry acts as the "brain" for the CPU, or processor, and as your computer is used this area will become disorganized and cluttered with unneeded and corrupted files and data. This will slow the computer's actions down and make it move slower. But with a good registry fixer or cleaner and some easy instructions you can do-it-yourself... easily and inexpensively at home.
Not only can you run an automatic scan of your computer that will show your the existing errors and other problems, but you should be able to set up a customize scan that will only go into the areas you want it to. You should have control of this and other functions as well. Just like in the repair process, the repair program should repair what you set up and not mess with other areas of your computer. But if some of this seems a little too much... you can just do the automatic scan and just keep it simple (This is what the vast majority do).
Is your computer slow at start-up? Many times register issues show up when a PC is slower at start-up than it used to be. Using this simple software program on your computer to repair register problems has had a great deal of success for many computer users. Some reports show as much as a 70% increase in start up speeds after running a high quality registry cleaner.
You need to research these programs that optimize the registry and make sure you are using a first class, secure system. You should expect to have your data and programs completely backed up and everything can be completely reversed... your computer and information should be kept completely SAFE!
The software you select should be certified to work with all major computer systems including all Microsoft products and third-party software. It should include simple to follow instructions on how to do the scanning, testing and repairing.
