Hide desktop icons to improve Windows startup performance

Long, long time ago in a bedroom not so far away I was booting up my laptop. As my laptop was loading Windows, I couldn't help but notice the desktop icons took a good amount of time to appear. Then a thought hit me: What if I hide the desktop icons -- would that make my boot time faster? After all, with the excellent search box embedded in the Windows 7 Start Menu that will be no more soon, I rarely even used my desktop icons anyway; what could go wrong. So I gave it a try. And, to my pleasant surprise, p-value was < .05 -- the null hypothesis was rejected: My Windows indeed did load faster with no desktop icons present.

How To Turn Off Desktop Icons?

Note: This tip should work on Windows XP, Vista, and Win7. It may work on Win8.

Easy. Right-click on your desktop, go to View, and uncheck Show desktop icons:

 Once Show desktop icons is checked, the icons on your desktop won't show. They aren't deleted -- they just won't show. To reshow the icons, simply recheck Show desktop icons.

I'm not sure what the technical reason behind this is (aside from the whole "there are fewer things to load" explanation) and frankly I don't know. Since that time long ago, I have rarely ever had the icons my desktop showing and am a better person for it.. If you have trouble with slow Windows boot, you may want to do the same.

Computer crashes have you down? Test your RAM for problems with Memtest86+.

MemTest86+ is a diagnostic program used to detect hardware problems with RAM (memory) modules. Since it can be run from a bootable CD, it is faster, safer, and more accurate at detecting memory problems than similar tools which would be run from within Windows.

To use MemTest86+, you first create a bootable CD/DVD with the program on it. You then boot your computer from this CD/DVD and MemTest86+ will start testing your RAM automatically. If there is a problem with your computer’s memory, MemTest86+ will list the errors on screen. Here is how to go about using MemTest86+:

1. Click here to download the ISO image from the MemTest86+ website. Be sure to select the file named “Pre-Compiled Bootable ISO (.zip)”.
2. Save this file to your desktop.
3. Once the download completes, open the downloaded archive file and extract (drag and drop) the single file contained inside to your desktop. The extracted file should have a “.iso” extension.
4. Use your favorite CD burning software to burn the ISO image to a CD. Be aware, the ISO file you downloaded is an image of a complete CD. You do not want to just burn the ISO image file to a CD as you would other data files, but instead want to make a CD from the image file. How you do this will vary depending on the program you use, but most will have an option similar to “Burn CD from Image File”.
5. Once you have a MemTest86+ CD, leave it in your computer’s drive.
6. Restart your computer.
7. As soon as your computer begins to restart, you will see the BIOS screen (white text on a black background). You should see an option to access a boot menu (often times you are instructed to press “F12″, “F10″ or “Esc” to access the boot menu).
8. Press the appropriate key to access the boot menu, then select the CD drive with the MemTest86+ CD in it as the boot drive.
9. Your screen will turn blue and the MemTest86+ program will start its tests. You can watch the progress in the top right.
10. Depending on the amount of RAM you have, the tests could take a long time. You can either stay and watch the tests run, or leave your computer and return to it later.
11. Any errors that are found will be listed in red at the bottom of the MemTest86+ screen. If the test complete without errors, you can eject the CD and restart your computer as normal.

What do the errors mean?
If the MemTest86+ scan reported errors, it means that is a problem with your RAM modules or your computer’s motherboard. You should consult a qualified IT company to further troubleshoot the problem and replace any defective hardware.

Speed up your internet Speed by 20%

Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc

You can get it back:

 

Steps to follow :

1. Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes. This opens the group policy editor.

2. Then go to:
 

--> Local Computer Policy
--> Computer Configuration
--> Administrative Templates

--> Network

--> QOS Packet Scheduler

--> Limit Reservable Bandwidth.
 
3. Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth.

It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e." By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.It works on Win 2000 as well.

How To Resize Your Partitions with EASEUS Partition Manager

If you’ve ever had to resize a partition, or make new partitions, then I completely understand what you most likely went through. Good partition management software for Windows is hard to come by, well the free partition managers anyways. Almost everyone has heard of Partition Magic, but there is a hefty price tag that comes with it.
As it turns out, there is a great application out there just for the Windows home user. It’s called EASEUS Partition Manager, and you should download it today!
In this short tutorial, I’m going to increase the size of the C: drive on my Windows Vista PC.Important Note: Please backup your data before attempting to make changes to the partitions on your computer. There is always the potential for lost data – so take the time to ensure you have a good backup.

As you can see in the image below,  C: drive is about 40 GB, with only 5 GB of free space available.  My D: drive is a second partition on the same physical drive as my C: drive.  Under that you’ll notice I have 10 GB of Unallocated space.  This is space that was never assigned to anything.  I’m going to expand  C: drive to include this space – for a grand total of 50 GB.

The real trick in resizing the first partition on a multi-partition drive is in allocating the space in precisely the right location.  In this example, all of the unallocated free space is at the end of the D: drive, which means I’ll have to move it to the beginning of the D: drive, so that I can eventually add it to C: drive.  First, I’ll select the D: drive and click on the Resize/Move button.  A new window opens up and lets you enter the new settings that you would like to use.

Identify Your Computer Ports

Any self-respecting geek should know these, they do come in handy from time to time:

• Serial Port: A serial communication physical interface through which information transfers in or out one bit at a time
• PS/2 Connector: Is used for connecting some keyboards and mice to a PC compatible computer system. Its name comes from the IBM Personal System/2 series of personal computers
• Parallel Port: Sends several data signals simultaneously over several parallel channels (as opposed to the Serial Port)
• Games Port: The traditional connector for video game input devices on x86-based PCs
• All these ports have been replaced by USB

BIOS - Basic Input Output System

Introduction

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is the lowest level of software in the PC. It is located on a separate chip on the motherboard and is the first thing that is loaded when we turn the computer on.
The BIOS starts by testing each component to make sure everything is operating as it should and that the computer has everything it needs to load the OS. This starting test is called the Power On Self Test, or POST. If any errors are detected during POST, the BIOS will report them either through a series of beeps or by displaying the error on the screen.
usually when we talk about the BIOS we are really talking about the BIOS setup, and the interface that is used to adjust these settings. The BIOS settings are like to core values of the PC and they are used to dictate how the computer will operate at a fundamental level.
To access the BIOS setup, you must press a particular key during the POST, usually this is the 'DELETE' key or the 'F2' key, depending on your motherboard.
As complicated as all this may sounds, in reality we don't have to do much in the BIOS setup, almost all of the default values are fine. There are a few we need to check and may need to be adjusted before we install our OS, but after that we will rarely or never need to come back to the BIOS (unless you intend to overclock that is).
Below are descriptions of which setting to check within each of the menus.

Explanations

Standard CMOS

Inside the standard CMOS menu, you will find the time and date settings, so ensure that these are correct for your time zone. You will also see a list of connected IDE drives and an option to set your floppy disk drive. Unless you are installing windows XP on a SATA drive then you probably do not have any use for a floppy drive and can set this to 'none'. 

The 'standard CMOS' is where you can set the Time/date and enable floppy disk drive.

Make Sense of Your Router and Local Network Settings

Quick, define the following: Default gateway, MAC address, and subnet mask. Didn't get all three right? That's OK. Even for seasoned vets who can build a PC blindfolded, networking often ends up being their Achilles Heel, the one area that manages to perplex and frustrate computer users of all skill levels. Blame it on the quirky terminology (Hint: a MAC address has nothing to do with Apple) or a fear of the unknown, but whatever the reason, today is the day you take that first step towards becoming a networking guru.

If you're brand new to networking, considering this your crash course introduction, and if local and wireless LANs are old hat, treat this as a refresher. Let's get started!

Router 101

Routers come in all shapes and sizes, and whether you spend $50 on a basic model or $200+ on a feature-packed unit, they all serve the same basic purpose: direct traffic on your home network. Oversimplified, a router allows PCs on your local network to communicate with each other, as well share an Internet connection with all the computers in your home. To understand how this works, we need to go over the difference between an IP address and a Local IP address: 

• IP Address: In geek speak, this is the logical address for a network adapter. Not unlike your home's physical address, an IP address is a unique identifying number assigned to every device connected to the Internet.
• Local IP Address: You can think of a local IP address as an apartment number. While the apartment complex has a single physical address (the IP address, in this example), each individual residence has its own apartment number, and the same concept applies to home networks. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigned your location a specific IP address, and if you intend to share that connection with more than one device in your home network -- like multiple PCs, your Xbox 360, and your iPad --  your router will assign each one its own local IP address. These aren't visible to the outside world - as far as the Internet and your ISP are concerned, all data flows through a single IP address no matter which of your home PCs, consoles, or other Internet-connected device is surfing the web. Once that information comes in, it's up to your router to direct the traffic to the appropriate device on your network.

How to Change Programs at Windows Startup

One of the main reasons why your Windows takes so long to boot when you switch it is due to the number of programs that run at system startup and this is the place for you to identify and disable them. In Windows operating systems, certain Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs are initiated during startup. Often, users will need to modify the startup process to stop the loading of some TSR programs. A Windows utility program, the System Configuration Utility (msconfig), is provided with each operating system installation. This utility will enable the user to modify the Windows startup process and the programs initiated during this process.

   
Steps to change programs at windows startup

• Click the "Start" button on the Windows desktop.

• Select the "Run" option.

• Type "msconfig" into the Run input box.

• Click "OK." A window with five tabs will appear.

• Click the "Startup" tab. A list of programs with checkboxes will appear.

• Uncheck each unneeded startup program. By using the msconfig utility, changes made to the startup process may be easily reversed.

• Reboot the computer. Windows will now start only the TSR programs specified with the configuration utility.
