Enhance your system's Speed and Performance for Windows 8/8.1

Stuck up with the speed and performance of your PC..! Don’t worry you have got an awesome speed and performance if you are running on the Windows 8 or Windows 8.1. Although the environment that is available with Windows 8 is at the zenith of its speed and performance.
Still some problems occur with the speed and performance of your system if you don’t have a proper management of your hard drives and flash drives. As you make the installations and removal of various soft-wares and programs, main file get installed and deleted respectively. But some temporary files, dump files stay there on your memory and occupy unnecessary space. Thereby speed and performance of your system goes down.
To understand the processing of an application you must be aware about ROM and RAM. Whenever you start a new programme on your PC by clicking its icon or something else, at that time you are ordering to transfer the data from ROM to RAM with the help of processor. Thus two processes occur simultaneously. First is to read the data on your ROM and second is to write the data on your RAM. Thus these two speeds must be balanced for the better performance.
To check the speed, performance, memory used and space occupied on the drives you may use the Task Manager on your PC. To access the Task Manager follow the set of keys:

Ctrl + Alt + Delete

For better speed and performance you must have to take care of following things.

• Lesser background programmes running on your PC

• Enough space on your “C” drive corresponding to your RAM

• Proper space location of your hard drive or Fragmentation

Methods to increase the speed and performance of your PC.

In that case you need to reduce used space and increase the free space, which is called optimization.

You may access this tool from the administrative tools. Once you select the drive then click on the Analyse. A complete scan run across the respective drive and shows the defragmented space on that drive. After that you just need to click on the Optimise All button. Within moments your drive will be optimised by the system tool and will give a push to speed and performance. Took the steps as given below.

Schedule Optimisation:

You have to go through all these steps every time you want to optimise your drive. The simple and easy method to do this is put the optimization under the schedule. To schedule the optimization click on the Change Settings on Optimise Drive pop up window.

Then select the Frequency of optimization, select the Drives by clicking on the Choose button and then OK. Your optimization will be scheduled.
