Vista Running Slowly and How to Speed it Up – Try Tips Here!
We all know that Vista is a RAM hog, especially Vista Ultimate. That is why many PC users find their Vista running slowly after being used for some time. If this is what you encounter frequently, try the tips here. Then, you can say goodbye to your slow Vista and speed it up.
First of all, please note that every Vista computer will run slowly with the increasing programs and files on the PC. Normally, Vista slowness is due to the corrupted registry if it is well protected from Viruses. Registry is the database where Vista keeps all of its Windows/ programs information, and it is used most frequently to ensure the stable running of the computer. Each time you install programs on the computer, related data will be added to the registry, too. Because of the frequent use, the Windows registry will result in some registry errors and invalid keys and then makes Vista running slowly.
So to speed up a slow Vista computer, first you have to run a registry cleaner to fix registry errors. Only with a compact and clean registry, can you avoid “Vista running slowly” problem. But please pay attention when you are selecting registry cleaner on the market because some inferior one will damage your computer completely.
Except the tips above, there are some other ways for you to speed up your slow Vista computer:
1) We know that Windows Vista is popular with lots of PC users right now because of its glossy visual effects. Also because of this, the computer runs slowly as it has to spend some time in loading all of your selected effects. To speed up a slow Vista, you can cancel the special effect and only to keep the “Use Visual Styles on Windows and Buttons” within “Visual Effects”.
2) Turn off Transparency. Just right click the desktop to select “personalize”, choose “Windows Color and Appearance”, and uncheck “Enable Transparency”, click “OK”.
3) Disable some unnecessary startup items, which affect Vista startup speed. Just go to Start, Run, type “msconfig” in the box and press “Enter”, and then uncheck the applications that you do not need to automatically run with Windows.
