Use A Flash Drive As RAM Memory


Do you have a slow or old Computer? Also, do you have a USB Flash Drive? Then now you are able to extend its memory by Increasing the RAM of your Computer using the memory available on the USB Flash Drive. This stuff is a trick that Windows provided as a solution to boost a little of your RAM memory and evade those little lags that Windows produces when it runs out of RAM resource. Increasing the PC's RAM using USB Flash Drive will help also enhance games performance and decrease the time of execution of some tasks made by software.
Follow me to Use a Flash Drive as RAM Memory:
Windows XP

  • Insert the Flash Drive then Right Click on My Computer > Properties
  • Navigate to Advanced tab then click Settings under Performance section.
  • Click Advanced tab again, and click Change under Virtual Memory section.
  • Select the USB Flash Drive letter from the list, click Custom Size .
  • Set the minimum and maximum size to use in the Flash Drive (better choose same size of flash drive)
  • Press OK and Apply all settings, Restart your Computer for changes to take effect.

Windows Vista / 7

How To Get Rid Computer Slowdowns And Hangs


There are many reasons for slowdowns and hangs of your computer. For this you have to try out several solutions and the actual cause to it. There are some basic steps that you should perform in case of slowdowns and hangs. Moreover you don't require any external software.
Follow me: 
Free up memory on your hard drive if your computer is performing slower than usual. A hard drive that is near capacity can cause the computer to significantly slow down. Delete any files you no longer use. You also can use the "Disk Cleanup" utility built into your computer. To launch this utility


  • Click  Start
  • All Programs
  • Accessories
  • System Tools
  • Disk Cleanup
  • A list of files is presented in a dialog box.
  • Click the check box next the files you want to delete and then click the "OK" button at the bottom of the dialog box to activate the utility.

Application Observe your computer and pinpoint a program or combination of programs that are running when it freezes. There might be a specific program responsible for freezing or crashing your computer. Try terminating that specific program and seeing if that fixes the problem. To terminate a program, press (CTRL+ALT+DEL) on your keyboard. This shortcut opens a window listing the currently running programs on your computer. Choose a program and click the "End Process" button to terminate the program.
Defragment your computer's files. Fragmented files occur when parts of a single file are stored in multiple places on the hard drive. This causes a computer to perform slowly because the computer must search in multiple places when accessing a fragmented file.

  • To defragment your computer click Start
  • All Programs
  • Accessories
  • System Tools
  • Disk Defragmenter.

Scan your computer for malicious files. Viruses or spyware often cause your computer to slow down or freeze. Use the virus scanner that is installed on your computer. If you don't have a virus scanner installed on your computer, there are online virus scanners available. After you have completed a virus scan, your results are displayed. The most desirable option is to delete any viruses or spyware that was found on your computer. Follow the virus scanner's prompts to delete the virus. However, not all viruses can simply be deleted. In this case, choose the "Quarantine" option in the virus scanner. This places the file in a separate folder or location on the drive where it can't affect other files
Repair any disk errors. Disk errors can cause your computer to slow down and freeze. You can use a utility on your computer to detect and fix disk errors. To do this, first open "My Computer." Right-click on the hard drive you want to repair and click "Properties." Click the "Tools" tab and then click the "Check Now" button. Select the check box next to "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors." Then click the "Start" button and the utility detects and repairs bad sectors.
Reboot your computer if your computer freezes. Hold down the "Power" button on the computer for at least five seconds. Wait for the computer to shut down and restart the computer. This is usually a temporary fix, but will at least unfreeze your computer

Additional Precautions :
Back up the data on your computer if your computer is slow or freezing often. To back up data, plug in an external hard drive or insert a CD or DVD and copy important files onto the storage device. You can simply drag the files from your computer into the storage device's folder. You also can use the Windows backup and restore utility. Open the backup and restore utility in Windows from the "Control Panel" and follow the prompts to create an entire clone of your hard drive.
Try not to reboot your computer by holding down the "Power" button too often as this can destabilize the operating system

How To Install Windows 8 Step By Step With Screenshots


In this guide I will cover the installation of Microsoft Windows 8 Release Preview 64-bit from a installation image. The installation of 32-bit and 64-bit are the same as this guide. I will try to explain certain options and provide helpful hints along the way, so rather than just following the guide, you can understand the reasoning behind the decisions.
If there are any mistakes please draw my attention to them and I will correct as needed. I have tried to make this as simple as possible, whilst covering the vast majority of scenarios users will come across whilst installing this operating system.


Step 1:


The first thing you should do is head to Download the installation image.

Step 2:
Using your disc burning software, burn the .iso you downloaded to a DVD.
Step 3:


Before you go any further, ensure all important data is backed up in case of data loss on your drives. This guide assumes you have media backups of your hard drives and you are safe to proceed.
Warning: Installing another operating system without first ensuring you have backups of your current files and operating system is a big risk. If you have no data to lose or you’ve backed up important data, you’re ready to proceed. YOU are responsible if you lose data.
Disclaimer: It goes without saying, that neither me or TechSpot accept any liability or responsibility for any errors or damages made to your computer during, or after installing this operating system. It is up to the user to ensure proper backups are made of important documents and files.

Step 4:
Ensure you have a network cable connected, restart your computer, and boot from the DVD drive.
Step 5:
The DVD will begin to load up, and you'll be presented by the following screen as the installer starts.



Step 6:
Once loaded you will see the following screen.
Select your location, keyboard and regional language settings as required and click "next" to continue and you'll see the following box:
Click "Install now" to continue with the installation.

Step 7:
You'll then be asked to provide the product key to activate Windows.
Enter the product key as written in the screenshot above. For the sake of clarity, the product key is TK8TP-9JN6P-7X7WW-RFFTV-B7QPF for both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

Once you have entered the product key, click "next" to continue to the next step.

Step 8:
Before you can proceed with the setup any further you're required to accept Microsoft's license terms, as below.
Read the terms, and once you're happy, tick the "I accept the license terms" box, and click "next" to continue to the next step.

Step 9:
You will be greeted with the following screen.
For the purposes of this guide, we'll assume you are performing a fresh installation of Windows 8 Release Preview. Therefore, this tutorial covers the "Custom" option which will install a fresh copy of Windows 8 Release Preview onto a clean hard drive, without backing up and restoring any existing files or settings.

The first option, "upgrade" will allow those running previous versions of Windows to upgrade to Windows 8 whilst keeping all files, settings and applications during the setup of the new operating system.

Step 10:
The setup will then continue and start the disk manager as below.

Select the correct drive to use for the installation of Windows 8 Release Preview, and click "next" to continue. For those trying this in a Virtual Machine, 20-25GB of hard drive space is more than adequate.

Note: This step is the last point in which you can abort the installation without permanent data loss to drives. Please ensure you have working backups before proceeding further.

Step 11:
Windows setup will then begin to install Windows 8 Release Preview to the hard drive, and will work through several stages as detailed below.
The installer may restart during the installation stage as it configures the computer to run the new operating system.

Step 12:
Once complete, it will reboot again and setup the computers devices and finalize the installation, as below.

Once this stage has finished, you will be greeted with the following screen.
Select your preferred colour scheme for Metro, and then name your computer. The PC name is used to identify the computer on local networks and ideally should be named so that other users your network can identify who the computer belongs to. Then click "next" to proceed.

Step 13:
You will then be greeted with the following window.

At this point you can specify the final settings required in the configuration of your new Windows installation. You can either choose "use express settings" or click "customize" to change the express settings.

If you are unsure, it is best to choose the first option. The installer will then configure the final settings and move onto the next step.

Step 14:
The next step asks you if you wish to sign into your PC using a Windows Live account.
Unlike previous versions of Windows, Microsoft's new operating system heavily integrates the Redmond-based firms Windows Live features, including messenger, contacts, calendar and mail.

Signing in using your Windows Live account also offers Windows 8 users additional benefits like the ability to download additional apps from the Windows Store and automatic synchronization of all your Windows 8 computers so they look and feel the same regardless of which one you're using.

Note: Your Windows Live ID also becomes your username for Windows 8 Release Preview, and uses your Windows Live ID password to log in.

Enter your Windows Live ID, and click "next" to continue.


You will then be asked for your password for your Windows Live account. Click "next" to continue.


The final step of integrating your Windows Live account with your new installation of Windows 8 Release Preview requires you to provide additional verification information. For those that have previously set this up, the fields will be completed already. Verify they are correct, or add the required information and click "next" to continue.

Step 15:
Windows 8 Release Preview will then complete its final configuration.


Once complete, it will then boot into Windows for the first time, as below.


Installation is now complete, and you can enjoy your new OS and begin exploring its features.

How to Speed Up Windows XP in Seconds


Maintenance and cleaning up of your PC should be part of a regular routine to ensure that you don’t have any long-term problems with the computer. Unfortunately most basic computer users may not understand the mechanics of a computer or may feel intimidated with the maintenance. Just follow the step by step to make your windows Faster as never before..
Speed Up Browsing
When you connect to a web site your computer sends information
back and forth. Some of this information deals with resolving the
site name to an IP address, the stuff that TCP/IP really deals with,
not words. This is DNS information and is used so that you will not
need to ask for the site location each and every time you visit the site.Although Windows XP and Windows XP have a pretty efficient DNS cache, you can increase its overall performance by increasing its size.You can do this with the registry entries below:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEM
CurrentControlSetServicesDnscacheParameters]
“CacheHashTableBucketSize”=dword:00000001
“CacheHashTableSize”=dword:00000180
“MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit”=dword:0000fa00
“MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit”=dword:0000012d


Make a new text file and rename it to dnscache.reg. Then copy and
paste the above into it and save it. Merge it into the registry.


Disable Indexing Services:

Indexing Services is a small little program that uses large amounts of RAM and can often make a computer endlessly loud and noisy. This system process indexes and updates lists of all the files that are on your computer. It does this so that when you do a search for something on your computer, it will search faster by scanning the index lists. If you don’t search your computer often, or even if you do search often, this system service is completely unnecessary. To disable do the following:
  • Go to Start
  • Click Settings
  • Click Control Panel
  • Double-click Add/Remove Programs
  • Click the Add/Remove Window Components
  • Uncheck the Indexing services
  • Click Next
Optimise Display Settings:

Windows XP can look sexy but displaying all the visual items can waste system resources.

To optimize:

  • Go to Start
  • Click Settings
  • Click Control Panel
  • Click System
  • Click Advanced tab
  • In the Performance tab click SettingsLeave only the following ticked:
- Show shadows under menus
- Show shadows under mouse pointer
- Show translucent selection rectangle
- Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop
- Use visual styles on windows and buttons

Speed Up Folder Browsing:

You may have noticed that every time you open my computer to
browse folders that there is a slight delay. This is because Windows XP automatically searches for network files and printers every time you open Windows Explorer.

To fix this and to increase browsing significantly:

  • Open My Computer
  • Click on Tools menu
  • Click on Folder Options
  • Click on the View tab.
  • Uncheck the Automatically search for network folders and
  • printers check box
  • Click Apply
  • Click Ok
  • Reboot your computer
Remove The Desktop Picture:

Your desktop background consumes a fair amount of memory
and can slow the loading time of your system.Removing 
 it will improve performance.

  • Right click on Desktop and select Properties
  • Select the Desktop tab
  • In theBackground windowselect None
  • Click Ok
Disable Unnecessary Services:

Because Windows XP has to be all things to all people it has many
services running that take up system resources that you will never
need.Below is a list of services that can be disabled on most
machines:
Alerter
Clipbook
Computer Browser
Distributed Link Tracking Client
Fast User Switching
Help and Support – (If you use Windows Help and Support leave
this enabled)
Human Interface Access Devices
Indexing Service
IPSEC Services
Messenger
Netmeeting Remote Desktop Sharing (disabled for extra security)
Portable Media Serial Number
Remote Desktop Help Session Manager (disabled for extra security)
Remote Procedure Call Locator
Remote Registry (disabled for extra security)
Remote Registry Service
Secondary Logon
Routing & Remote Access (disabled for extra security)
Server
SSDP Discovery Service – (Unplug n’ Pray will disable this)
Telnet
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper
Upload Manager
Universal Plug and Play Device Host
Windows Time
Wireless Zero Configuration (Do not disable if you use a wireless network)
Workstation

To disable these services:

  • Go to Start and then Run and type “services.msc”
  • Double click on the service you want to
  • change Change the startup type to ‘Disable”
Remove Annoying Delete Confirmation Messages

Although not strictly a performance tweak I love this fix as it
makes my machine ‘feel’ faster. I hate the annoying
‘are you sure?’ messages that XP displays, especially
if I have to use a laptop touchpad to close them.

To remove these messages:

  • Right-click on the ‘Recycle Bin’ on the desktop and then
  • click ‘Properties’
  • Clear the ‘Display Delete Confirmation Dialog’ check
  • box and click ‘Ok’!!
