Please John what is SFC? and please again arn't some
cookies useful and I
am sure the idea of a daily Defrage will terrify some!
unless computers
have changed alot. Finally I do have a lot on myDesktop
System Tray and some
may not be important, but can you tell me this and remember
how this thread
started.
Some days are "sludge days as I said other days like today
my computers
laptop and desktop are tearing along at a great speed.Why is
that? I have
altered nothing at all, do have a new Wireless Router since
yesterday

Hi everybody, another couple of tips that will help your
computer to keep
running as it should.
Firstly don't let cookies build up. If left to bild up
they will have an
effect on your computer's performance. Some of them can also
be harmful.
Secondly do a defrag once a day. The less fragmented you
let windows get
the better. It's an obvious thing, but it's amazing how many
times I've
heard of people never defragmenting and wondering why they
have errors, and
why their computer runs increasingly slower.
Lastly for now SFC. If you get error messages it's a good
idea to run SFC,
just in case system files have been altered badly or
corrupted.
To do this, put your windows cd in the drive. Shut down
the welcome screen
when it appears. Go to start and then run, and type:
sfc /scannow
You'll hear the cd power up. Windows will scan all its
system files and
replace where necessary. Jaws still works during it, so
don't be worried
about lack of speech feedback.
John.
