Personally, I don’t see the point in upgrading your hardware if your computer does everything you need it to. However, sometimes it’s nice to improve what you already have.
In this guide we will learn how to make the most out of the hardware you have and make windows XP run faster. (Here’s a similar list for Windows Vista and for Windows 7.)
1. Defragment Your Hard Disk
Imagine you are in a shopping mall, and the person you are with wants to visit fifteen different shops.
Turn Off Visual Effects.
However, this person ends up walking you up and down the mall six times. Does that make sense? Of course not – as human beings, we like to do things in order to save time.
When your hard drive becomes fragmented, it is literally wasting time by looking in all kinds of places on the disk for all of the pieces of one file.
Defragmenting your drive is a great solution to speed up your computer as it puts all the files together in order.
