Top Ten Tips To Improve System Speed

1. Let your PC boot up completely before opening any applications.

2. Refresh the desktop after closing any application. This will remove any unused files from the RAM.
3. Do not set very large file size images as your wallpaper. Do not keep a wallpaper at all if your PC is low on RAM (less than 64 MB).
4. Do not clutter your Desktop with a lot of shortcuts. Each shortcut on the desktop uses up to 500 bytes of RAM
5. Empty the recycle bin regularly. The files are not really deleted from your hard drive until you empty the recycle bin.
6. Delete the temporary internet files regularly.
7. Defragment your hard drive once every two months. This will free up a lot of space on your hard drive and rearrange the files so that your applications run faster.
8. Always make two partitions in your hard drive. Install all large Softwares (like PSP, Photoshop, 3DS Max etc) in the second partition. Windows uses all the available empty space in C drive as virtual memory when your Computer RAM is full. Keep the C Drive as empty as possible.
9. When installing new Softwares disable the option of having a tray icon. The tray icons use up available RAM, and also slow down the booting of your PC. Also disable the option of starting the application automatically when the PC boots. You can disable these options later on also from the Tools or preferences menu in your application.
10. Protect your PC from dust. Dust causes the CPU cooling fan to jam and slow down thereby gradually heating your CPU and affecting the processing speed. Use compressed air to blow out any dust from the CPU. Never use vacuum.
RAM IS THE WORKING AREA (DESKTOP) OF THE CPU, KEEP IT AS EMPTY AND UNCLUTTERED AS POSSIBLE!

Protect Your USB Drive From Virus With Dummy Files

Initially assume that you have some files in your USB drive and you want to fill up the remaining space.

First download USBDummyProtect (an executable 4KB ZIP file). Once you’ve downloaded the file extract it and copy the exe file in to your USB root drive.

You can see in the first image that we’ve about 1GB disk space left, this tool will help you to fill the remaining space easily by creating a dummy file.
Once the exe file has been copied, run the program by double clicking it. As soon as the program runs, the program starts to create a dummy file that has enough size to fill of all the remaining space of yourUSB storage device.

Once the dummy file creation is successful you’ll be notified. Press enter to close the program.

You can see a dummy.file in your USB drive.

Also check out your USB device disk space.

It must have filled now with zero space available. This will prevent other infectitous programs to copy itself to your USB drive.
Incase if you want to copy some files from your own non-infected PC then delete the dummy.file and again run the program.

How To Hide Any Drive Through Regedit

You can hide any drive with a simple registry edit, by following the below steps -

3. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
4. Now Right click on the right side pane and click on New > DWORD value and rename it as NoDrives

5. Now suppose you want to hide C drive, so right click on NoDrives > Modify

Change the Base Type to Decimal and Value Data to 4 (for C drive)

Similarly, for hiding other drives use different Value data from the below table-

To hide drive A and drive D, you would add 1 (A) + 8 (D) which means the value should be set to “9″.

6. Log Off and Log In back to see changes.
