subject: Getting Your Slow Computer Up And Running Smoothly. [print this page] I am writing this article because of my experience of investing in 2 computers, one running on vista basic, the other on xp home edition with constant frustration getting the computers running smoothly especially the challenge of vista incompatible programs which is well and truly known but improving.
My first experience was to prevent unnecessary start up programs, having start up programs prevented so in affect improves logging in with no slow effect of preventing fast access.
The next advice was that Microsoft suggests is that every program you download is to restart your computer to let the system adjust to the new program. Or installing hardware such as sound cards, fire wire cards for connecting a video camera, TV fm cards for antenna connection, DVD burner for burning video to digital video disc, bigger gigabyte ram cards or a Graphics card.
Next the big important issue was updating drivers no question this is an absolute must? So I purchased a driver update program which has an enormous database of vista or xp drivers for what I required. Even installing say a graphics card for example there is still an up to date driver for it to function better. Well and truly a good investment.
Next was getting a good affordable virus protection program which is very interesting doing a scan after browsing the internet of what was detected and deleted. Reading reviews for me revealed the shield deluxe 2009 was more affordable. It has been said in countless reviews that virus scan programs can extremely slow computers down this one seems ok to me.
Security programs Mcafee works well for me you can even trace an unknown intrusion to their country if intrusion is detected.
Next a good registry repair program reading reviews revealed a good one for me, Error fix seems highly ranked in reviews; registry easy is a question mark to me because the google has suspected the website as suspect downloads other people may say different.
Next was the most interesting subject of all deleted files, search history, email, private files are not actually deleted. They are kept in the secret bios that so many people do not know of. Download secure clean just too actually see and do a full computer scan and your eyes will roll back of what is actually still sitting in this secret bios. What this particular program does is over writes the so called deleted files and search terms and cleans up files you don't need. There are many programs like this check reviews for the best. This one works great affordable price else well.
