How do you make laptop go faster?

2.5 ghz core 2 duo

To incease speed of laptops you can follow these instructions:

1. Run a security scan for your laptop. Don't be lazy and think you can deal with the infection files later. If you frequently visit various website and download files often, your laptop will have high risk to be infected. It is really necessary for you to have an anti-virus software to protect the laptop computer. This is the most important step to speed up laptop.

2. Remove hidden junk files on your laptop to speed up your laptop. How long haven't you clean up the junk files? Too many junk files on the system will slow down the laptop speed by occupying the system resource. To delete those hidden junk files, please: Open "My Computer"--"Program files" and then choose the programs you never use or want deleted then just delete the folder.

3. To speed up your laptop computer, you also can disable some unneeded services and programs on the laptop startup. To do this please: Click Start--Run--type in msconfig--under the services tab you can disable the unwanted services. In addition, under the "Startup" tab, you can choose and disable some of them in order to speed up laptop boost speed.

4. Scan and fix Windows registry on your slow speed laptop. Perhaps you will ask that why you can speed up your laptop by cleaning registry errors. Registry stores all of the configuration settings in the system like a brain to human. Any incorrect registry settings, corrupted registry will make your laptop run unstable. If you leave the corrupted or malicious registry entries there and continue to run the damaged system, this potential risk will not only slow your computer down but also crash your system. If you never repair registry errors on your laptop, you can try this method to speed up your laptop.

Dell laptops can you install odd number memory?

Yes, you can have any number of sticks, odd or even, inside a computer nowadays. The issues that matter are that they are the appropriate speeds and types of RAM, are of a size that the motherboard can use, and do not exceed the full capacity that the motherboard can address. For example, if a motherboard indicates that it has four RAM slots and can address a total of 32GB of DDR3-1600 RAM, then that implies that the largest stick that it can address is 8GB. Therefore, do not bother to buy 16GB or 32GB sticks to put on the board because the system will not recognize them. Further, do not buy DDR2 RAM because it is cheaper as it will not fit into the DDR3 slots. Also, if you already have RAM installed that is running at, say, 1333 MHz, unless the RAM is the same price for 1333 as it is for 1600, don't bother to get the 1600 because it will be slowed down by the slower RAM and you will have wasted the money to get the faster RAM. In the corollary, however, don't buy slower RAM if you already have faster RAM. The reason being that the slower RAM will bottleneck what you already have.

As long as you stick to these simple rules, you should not run into any problems and can add any RAM upgrades that are appropriate for the motherboard.


If you have any other questions or need help choosing the appropriate upgrade, feel free to drop me a line.

I think it's this program caled "ghost control" or something. Probably not legal though, so heed my warning.
