increasing performance

[Renzore101]

is there anything you can do software wise to increase the performance of the computer while playing games and surfing the web and such?

exit programs you are not using, stuff on the taskbar and stuff. alt control delete and remove and process you know it is safe to remove. disable themes and animations

make a RAM disk drive and put your internet cache there or put it in an empty partition

do those firefox and IE connection tweaks.

depends on what game your trying to play.. what connection you have.. and your system specifications. list those and we'll start from there.

if you have XP(if not, you can stil do this, just starting it is a little more complex)
go to start-run-msconfig, and turn off basicly everything, besides like anti-virus and that stuff. That'll help, because all the backround programs use system rescourses.
