Separating ur harddisk into partition

Most of us,basically will only partition our hd maybe to 2 or 3 partiotions.Well, here is tips on how suppose we do it.Suppose we just installed the OS on basic requirement as it needed, means if for Xp, their minimum requirement is only 2GB, so just spend around 5 GB on for the installer.Separating the program files folder on other partition is a big help on optimizing ur pc performance.

For example, u installed ur softwares,other programs,editor on D drive or E drives separate from the Windows files.Generally, it helps as on backup purposes and also security terms,quota and etc.This tips is also applied for other application ex; music folder will be put on other partition, office files, video, applications and etc.
If u dont believe it, u can try and c da difference..

 

Defrag ur harddisk once per month

Actually it's a good practical knowledge if u defrag ur hd once a month as it
can improve performance of ur pc.Just using the admin tools and run the diagnose and start defragmenting.

After that,restart ur pc.but if there is no 'active' activity on ur drives maybe D,E,F u can skip this on running once a month..maybe u can change it to twice per year or etc.

There is also another tips on performance..just disable certain services that are 'automatically' loaded when u installed the Os..most of network serveices is unneeded if u are running on standalone pc..so, get reviews on it and manage as it quite a good way on optimizing ur performance.
