in terms of software and file management?
defrag, regularly.
What are your PC specs?
AMD Athlon 64 3800+
Radeon 9600xt Bravo
1gb RAM
2400 Ghz
200gb Maxtor SATA Hardrive
Creative SBLive! 5.1
450 power supply
yeh i defrag like once every two weeks or so. mp3s take ages to load up (when winamp isnt already on) and also media player classic is really slow too...actually most programs take ages to load up :S
And defrag in safe mode.
sweet! didnt know that.i do it now :)
Remove unnecessary startup programs and services.
use tuneup utilities.. really handy program.
I find this page helpful http://www.theeldergeek.com/services_guide.htm
Some services may not be required in your personal setup....ex. printer spooler if you do not have a printer setup :) Other services install themselves with programs examples are diskeeper or sisoftsandra. With these I disable them until I need to run the program...
Nice, I never knew that either. Thanks for the tip :01:Quote:
