We can teach you to practice these techniques in your business to get the productivity you want. Don't just deal with a slow computer and think that the only way to increase speed is to add memory buy a new PC. In this economy making what you have last longer matters.

Focusing on the following key ares will achieve your productivity and longevity goals.

1. Aging hardware can have a significant impact on performance. Installing applications when your computer only meets the minimum requirements(even recommended requirements) may have a serious impact on performance. Make sure your hardware is up to spec.

2. Don't save to your Desktop! The more data on your desktop the longer it will take to load-Guaranteed. Instead create folders in your Documents and create shortcuts to the folders on your desktop. De-fragmenting your computer is also a great way to speed up file access times. ( Warning!! Do not Defrag a Solid State HDD)

3. Windows Errors,  Spyware, Viruses,  and Malware are one of the more common resource leaches. Make sure to keep your antivirus up to date, and to repair windows errors by checking for them.

4.Remove unused programs. Freeing up disk space will always help improve performance but just uninstalling those programs is not enough.  Removing the left over junk associated with the programs needs to be done as well

5. Shutdown unneeded start-up programs and services. Most programs don't need to start when windows starts. Controlling these options in Microsoft configuration a drastically improve performance.
