Top 10 PC Optimization Technique for Old Computers


                 Optimization helps you to speed up your computer. If your computer is well optimized you can do many things without interruption. It can make your work be easy most specially in typing jobs or any related work. More of us wants to have a high end computer but not affordable with our budget. That's why we are still making sense of our old computer or let us say not a high end one like P4, PM and Sempron processor inside the system unit and only having 512 MB of RAM. What I want to say is, there is a way on how to optimize computer/PC without upgrading. Office works, is what I meant, for what I have in the said old computer. Not only for that, also with the students who cannot afford to buy a new one. Listed below are the ways on how you can optimize your PC without upgrading.

1. Check Up - I can say that computers are like humans that needs care also. If a human got sick he/she goes to a doctor for check up. Computers need check up too, and you will be the doctor. Checking up all the peripherals inside the system unit can help a lot that we can say diagnose. Now once the computer diagnosed or checked up already, and if you found somethings wrong, you are now going for troubleshooting. Although you can not totally fix the problem, at least you knew what are the problems on your computer. On that time you can call a Computer Technician or any specialist to fix that problem.

2. Anti - Virus - like what I have said computers are like humans, viruses can destroy the system system of the human body like in computers it will destroy your files and other system files. Make sure that you have installed Anti-Virus and keeping it updated. How if I can't buy that kind of Anti-Virus. In the internet, there are lots of freeware Anti-Virus software that you can download. Or you can visit the Freeware Download Link on the Page menu on this Blog. Keeping your PC Virus free helps you a lot in maintaining the good performance of your PC. Always scan your system for Viruses.

3. Unused Programs - delete some unused programs for the system not to be crowded. Make sure that the file is not important. Take a look first before deleting them.

4. Start Up - disable programs that are not needed to be run on system start up. Enable only the important applications like Anti-Virus.

5. Cleaning - you can clean the PC outside and inside. Outside is for physical cleaning, uncasing the unit and clean the whole PC. Inside is for cleaning the disc storage, the registry, cookies, recycle Bin, and any temporary files. CCleaner can help a lot with this one.

6. Updates - updating your computer system can also optimize your PC. Take advantage of that.

7. Proper Shutdown - improper shutting down of the system unit can give the Hard Disk Bad Sectors and also System Crash. Make sure that you will always shutdown your PC properly.

8. Defragmentation - fragmented files can make your PC slow down. Defrag your Hard Disk to arranged those fragmented files.

9. Virtual RAM - this is an advance technique. You can read the whole process Here.

10. Graphics - minimize using of screensavers and other desktop enhancers. It can also affects the CPU performance.
