Comprehensive optimization of Windows computer system

Start Fly--Set startup options

The first thing to do is to shorten the speed of my start-up, leaving the owner a good first impression.

Select "Run" from the "Start" menu, which will pop up a dialog box where you can enter the letter msconfig and then enter the System Configuration Utility. In "General" you can see the startup option, where you choose "Selective Startup" and then go to the "Start" option, where you can see what I'm loading at startup. While loading things can improve performance and add a lot of functionality, it can increase startup time significantly. In particular, some of the configuration is not very good machine has a great impact on the start-up speed can not be tolerated. If you have the option to load things for me, then you will save a lot of time when you start. If you configure me with Windows 98 or lower operating system, and there is a text named Autoexec.bat, she is also responsible for starting.

　　My Secret--"My Computer" optimization strategy

After leaving a good impression on the host, what is the next specific optimization starting from where I am? Start with "My Computer" because there are many settings that are related to her, and if you can set it correctly, the effect of the optimization is obvious. In order to take care of the needs of more friends here, I have chosen the most popular Windows Me and Windows XP two operating systems are described separately.

　　One, Windows me system

Click the "My Computer" icon to press the right button, which will pop up a menu, you choose "Properties" can be set.

1, Device Manager. The installation of the latest drive can improve the performance of the machine a lot, but my suggestion is better to install a more stable driver is better; if the motherboard is via chip, select the rear via BusMaster PCI IDE Controller in the "Hard disk controller", which will appear " Dual IDE Channel settings ", where you choose to" Take Two IDE channels ", so that in the future access to the hard disk files will be fast up to 15% speed. If your optical drive is not very "antique", in the "optical drive" this option will be "DMA" this option to open, so the speed of access to the disc is much faster than before.

2, performance.

Because file access speeds are important to the speed of your computer, virtual memory settings can also have an impact on the speed of your machine. The maximum value of virtual memory can be set to about 80% of the free space on the disk, and the minimum value is about 100MB. If my "body" is healthy, then you can put "hardware acceleration" in the "Advanced graphics Settings" to all, so that you can give full play to the power of the video card.

3, file system → hard disk.

This property can be used to tune the purpose of the hard disk to "network server", and the read-only optimizations are optimized to make the hard drive more efficient. Disable scanning of floppy disks at startup, which can also increase the boot speed and avoid damage to the head at each boot, select the floppy page and cancel the search for a new floppy drive every time you start your computer. CD-ROM Here you can move the cache to maximum, and the disc access is four times times or faster, which will increase the speed of the optical drive. The principle of its caching is to use part of the memory as a cache of the optical drive to increase the performance of the optical drive, similar to virtual memory.

4, System Restore.

System Restore is an important feature that Microsoft has started to add to the operating system from Windows me. This feature is enabled by default, and Windows can use this feature to restore once the files on your computer are corrupted. Windows Me Saves the restore information in the _restore folder. A _restore folder is created on each hard drive on the computer, and restarting the computer updates the folders. Here I think this dongdong to my practical help is not very big, and also make my body so bloated. So be determined to remove the system, in the "Troubleshooting" to the bottom of the "No System Restore" election can be.

　　Second, Windows XP system

The difference between Windows XP and Windows Me tuning My computer is not great, and I'm going to introduce the difference here.

Select the "Advanced" option in the System properties, and in the performance settings you can adjust some of the visual effects of XP, depending on my configuration to be the best performance or the best appearance. If the hardware configuration is very low, or choose the best performance is better, so that I can run more smoothly, if the hardware configuration is the top of the configuration, then you should not be polite, open all XP special effects, will give you an unprecedented visual enjoyment. Later in the "Advanced options" in the processor and memory plan are chosen to use the program as an optimization priority object, so that when running the program can be the memory and CPU priority on top of the program, but also the speed of the program to increase a lot.

If you do not have any special needs, please do not put my body "Automatic Updates" this function to start. Because some of Microsoft's newer things are not what I need, and in downloading those useless things also waste a lot of time and hard disk space. It is best not to choose Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance on the "remote" item. If you choose to be equivalent to leave me a back door, those hackers invaded me a lot of convenience, in order not to let strangers know more about me, please prohibit these two options ^o^.

Core--Complete optimization with the registration form

The registry is equivalent to my nervous system, and I can say that everything I do is modified by the registry. If you have a good command of the registry, it is easy to optimize it, even though most of the so-called optimization software is now optimized by modifying the registry. Because the registration content is very rich, in this article I will cite several to my speed comparison has the influence aspect to carry on the introduction.

一、一次 Click to turn off the machine

Applicable: Windows 98

Methods: 1, open Hkey_classes_ Rootdirectoryshell primary key, new name "Close" PRIMARY key, double click on the "Closed" subkey window to the right of "default", and in the "Key Value" field, enter "Turn Off computer" (used to display in the right mouse click "Start" menu), you can define a shortcut key after &&.

2, under "Close" to establish a level of subkey "Command", double-click the subkey window to the right of the "default", and in the "Key value" column, enter "RUNDLL32." EXE USER. Exe,exitwindows ".

3, after the input, right click on the "Start" menu select "Shut down the computer" can be turned off the computer.

Second, remove the sound when the error is made

Applicable: Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP

Method: Open hkey_current _usercontrol paneldesktop subkey, find "Cursoblinkrate" in the right window, double-click "Currsorblinkrate", the number entered is the speed at which the cursor blinks, The default number for the system is generally 200~400. If the user enters "-1", the cursor will not blink again.

Automatically turn off the screensaver before finishing the disk

Applicable: Windows 98

Method: Open Hkey_current _usersoftwaremicrosoftwindowscurrentversionapplets, create a new subkey defrag, and create a new subkey under it. Then create a new string value in the right window, named "Disablescreensaver", and set its value to Yes.

Vii. speed off the shutdown

Applicable: Windows 98

Method: Open the Hkey_local_ mac-hinesystemcurrentcontrolsetcontrolshutdown subkey, create a new string value in the right window, name "FastReboot", and set the value data to 1 , after the modification can feel the shutdown speed has been significantly accelerated.

Eight, automatically delete the Exchange file when shutdown

Applicable: Windows 2000

Method: Open the Hkey_local_ machinesystemcontrolset001controlsession managermemory Management subkey, and double-click the in the right window. ClearPageFileAtShutdown, set the hexadecimal value data to 1, and the Pagefile.sys file is now automatically deleted when the system is shut down.

Give me a pair of eyes--Display optimization settings

It is important to show this part of the setting because it is directly related to the good and bad of the eye. If the display part of the correct optimization, then the eyes will be very good protection ...

1, Screen Protection: screen protection time selection of 15 minutes advisable, of course, can also be based on their own specific circumstances to decide;

2, Power use scheme: "Turn off the monitor" suggested that 30 minutes is advisable, and "turn off the hard drive" here Select "Never", because the hard drive is closed, and then restart the head has a great damage;

3, in the "Hibernate" this option can cancel the machine hibernate, this can save 100MB of hard disk space, but also can release part of the memory. The "Appearance" option allows you to choose the "Windows Classic" style, which is not as elegant as XP, but can greatly speed up the menu.

4, refresh rate.
