To answer this problem, we must first look at the causes that make your computer run slow.
1. Your CPU is not strong enough.
This is sort of unsolvable problem, I mean without buying a new one. However, there has been invented a way to speed you CPU up, by overclocking, but that is very dangerous for the processor and there is a high probability that it will be fried.
My advice is to go to BIOS and make sure both memory caches (if your CPU has two of them) “L1 Cache” and “L2 Cache” are both enabled. If you have one of them disabled, you will discover the difference for sure once you enable it.
2. You think there is a problem with your RAM memory.
We can encounter two situations here.
The first one is when one has loads of RAM but the computer still moves slowly. This is because in order to save RAM, Windows system use “Page File” which is a virtual memory kept on your hard drive and remember! hard drive is usually the slowest component in any PC.
In order to disable page file, here is what you need to do:
- Go to “Start Menu” right click on “My Computer”, or right on “My Computer” from desktop if it is there.
- Go to “Properties”
- Select the “Advanced” tab.
- In the “Performance” section click “Settings”
- Select the “Advanced” tab again in this new window.
- In the “Virtual Memory” section click “Change”.
- In the new window, select “No paging file” and click “Set”. You will be informed that it is necessary restart you computer.
- Click “Yes”, then “OK” to all the windows and you will be prompted to “Restart the computer now” and I recommend to click “Yes”. That’s it, you’re done!
The second situation is where the system has little RAM.
Here the clever thing to do is to choose which processes run and which do not, based on necessity and memory usage. Also optimize RAM memory by reorganizing the data.
This is very hard to do manually. And the memory optimization in impossible. The solution is to use a software to help you.
I reccomend: RAM Saver Pro to get the job done nice and easy.
