If youre reading this report, most likely (at least I hope so) youre interesting in getting software for booking reservations and want some tips on how to get the most out of that software.
As most people are not computer literate, software can be quite daunting for them. No need to fear. This report is going to share everything you will need to know about how to get the most out of your software.
With the tips and tricks in this report, you should have no problem getting your software to perform for you.
While this report was designed with RESERVATION MASTER in mind, it will help you with any software that you choose to use.
So without any further delay, let us get right to the tips.
Optimization
Probably one of the most important parts of running a piece of software is to optimize it as much as possible. By optimizing, I mean getting it to run as quickly and efficiently on your PC as possible.
First thing you have to do, even before you get the software, is to check the specs to see if it is compatible with your computer.
Most software today will run on Windows 2000/XP/Vista
With Windows 7 being new, you might have a problem if its an older software that hasnt been updated.
With older versions of Windows, such as 98/ME, you might have a problem with new software that isnt designed to run on older systems.
Then there is the Mac issue. A lot of software is written specifically for Windows and will not run on a Mac.
If you try running a piece of software on an operating system that does not support it, it may still run. However, it may run slowly, produce errors or at the very least, if you run into a problem it will NOT be supported by the creator of the software.
So please make sure that the software you purchase is compatible with your computer.
The next thing you want to do is get your PC as optimized as possible.
Here are a few things you can do:
1. Free up disk space
To do this, you want to use the Disk Cleanup utility.
Use Disk Cleanup to:
Remove temporary Internet files.
Remove downloaded program files (such as Microsoft ActiveX controls and Java applets).
Empty the Recycle Bin.
Remove Windows temporary files such as error reports.
Remove optional Windows components that you don't use.
Remove installed programs that you no longer use.
Remove unused restore points and shadow copies from System Restore.
2. Speed up access to data
To speed up access to your data, use Disk Defragmenter. What this does is it rearranges like data so that it is closer together and thus, the computer processor does not have to take as long to find it.
On a new PC, this is not such a big problem. But as the PC ages, it does get worse until eventually it takes forever to retrieve even the simplest data.
When to run Disk Defragmenter
In addition to running Disk Defragmenter at regular intervals monthly is optimal there are other times you should run it too, such as when:
You add a large number of files.
Your free disk space totals 15 percent or less.
You install new programs or a new version of Windows.
3. Security Software
One of the biggest offenders of PC performance is the virus. Like it or not, viruses are an everyday part of life, especially if you are connected to the Internet. And since you are reading this report, you are connected to the Internet.
A virus can not only slow your PC to a crawl but it can pretty much wipe it out completely if you download one that is dangerous enough.
In order to protect yourself and keep your PC running fast, it is essential that you install some anti virus software. I personally recommend Kaspersky. Unlike Norton Anti Virus, which I think causes more problems that it solves, Kaspersky runs clean and easy and does an excellent job or protecting your PC.

4. Upgrades
Finally, if you really want to speed up your PC, a sure fire way to do it is to go to a reliable technician and have him upgrade your processor and memory.
Standard CPU speed today is about 3.3 gigahertz.
Standard memory today is about 2 to 4 gigabytes
If you want to speed up your PC, check to see how fast your processor is and how much memory you have and then upgrade accordingly. Memory is very cheap today.
