Tune Up Your PC Video Series – Startup Programs, Defrag, RAM

 In this final video you will learn about speeding up your computer by eliminating unwanted startup programs, Defragmenting your hard drive, and why you need more RAM.

The video starts out explaining what the startup programs are, and why you need to minimize them.  I am a firm believer in eliminating unwanted programs from starting.  Nearly every piece of software want to make sure it starts up when you boot your computer.  Be aware of this, and remove them from the startup menu.

The second part of the video talks about defragmenting your Hard Drive, why you need to do it, and how to access the proper utility to make it happen.  A simple, yet VERY important maintenance task you need to perform. 

Finally you will learn a bit about RAM, and why you always need more.  You will learn about what things you need to know before you upgrade, and the benefits of adding RAM to your computer.

 This is the Final Video in the series.  I hope you have enjoyed them.  As I said when I rolled out the first one, these are basic videos, but I feel that everyone, even the computer expert might learn something.  I have added links below to all six videos below, and I have also put it on my Tutorials Page.

Speeding up:  Start Up Programs, Defragging, Buy More RAM

In this last video, we will explore more options for you to speed your computer up faster than ever… 

This is a series of Basic Tutorials on how to keep your computer running at peak efficiency.  I originally used them as individual Blog Posts, but here is the entire group in one place.  They are Flash Format and will play easily on your computer.  The links will open in a new window so that you can focus on the content.
