HOW TO speed up your Windows Vista PC

I have found these tips from the Windows Vista online documentation practical & useful -
  • Disable services you don’t need - see possible list of Services to disable
  • Turn off visual effects - over 20 of them; if you want speed over looks
  • Delete programs you never use
  • Limit how many programs load at startup - made easy with Windows Defender
  • Clean up your hard disk - Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup
  • Defragment your hard drive - monthly is optimal or when your free disk space totals 15 percent or less
