How to make Windows XP faster
Step one - get rid of all the viruses, spyware, malware, adware which might be running on your computer.
Here is a very simple tutorial on how to remove adware, malware, and spyware.
Now it is time to scan for viruses. Download the free AVG anti-virus, install it, and run a full scan. If you have AVG Anti-Virus already (or other Anti-Virus program) update the database before running the scan.
Step two - Windows updates. Make sure that you have the latest Windows updates installed on your computer. If you have your Windows updates turned off you might want to turn them back on or manually get the latest Windows updates.
Step three - take a look at your Startup programs. Once installed many programs insist on starting every time you boot up your computer. To remove some of them click the Start buttin -> click Run -> type msconfig -> press Enter -> open the Startup tab -> disable the programs that you don’t want to run on Start up.
Step four - uninstall programs you don’t use any longer. In order to do that go to Start -> COntrol Panel -> Add or Remove programs, see what programs you don’t use any more and uninstall them.
Step five - tune up Windows XP for best performance. Start -> Control Panel -> System -> open the Advanced tab -> under Performance click the Settings button -> select Adjust for best preformance.
Step five - be cool! If you are spending considerable time surfing the Net make sure you do that with Firefox or Chrome. This will not speed up Windows XP per se but it will sure make your life better!
