postheadericon Benchmark Programs and softwares

Diagnostics programs are different from benchmark programs in that they are very serious programs used to analyse specific computer problems and cure them, instead of only measuring component performance. The following programs (for the most part) have been written by Craig Hart, a hardware designer, computer technician and programmer. The programs he developed are widely used by computer technicians to analyse hardware problems, acting as help tools to solve these problems. If you’re interested you can visit Craig’s WebSite at http://home.hyperlink.net.au/~chart/index.htm . All of these programs are freeware and can be directly downloaded from Craig’s site or from the links down below.

postheadericon Fix a Slow Computer

Would you like to fix your slow computer? Do you even have problems with it freezing up completely? Do you sometimes get the dreaded “Blue Screen of Death”? That one can be especially troubling, as I’m sure you can attest to if you’ve ever had the misfortune of experiencing it. Thankfully, with the advent of Windows XP, and now Windows Vista, computer problems such as slow and crashing computers have been reduced dramatically. However, for many computer users they are still an expensive and vexing problem.

Do want to fix a slow computer? If these computer crashes happen to you on a regular basis you know how frustrating they ca be. In addition they can cost you vital time and money. If you’ve ever lost important work or research, you know that feeling all too well. If you’ve resorted to saving your work constantly, or backing up your computer hourly instead of daily or weekly in order to prevent lost data or wasted hours, you’re probably wondering what the cause of your troubles are. The natural reaction of many when faced with a slow computer or Windows system crashes is to curse the boys of Redmond, or Bill Gates himself, and dutifully start over again.

Most of these problems actually have a common cause. Weather you’re having problems with a computer that’s running much slower than it did when it was new, or going off into it’s own world every once in a while, the problems you are experiencing can probably be traced back to problems in your computer’s Windows registry. If you’ve never even heard of a Windows registry, don’t feel bad. Many normal computer users haven’t either. The registry is usually the province of computer repair technicians and software geeks.

There are several reasons why your computer can be slow. Especially when it happens suddenly, then it can be slow because of malware (spyware, adware, trojans, viruses..) present.

Installing new software which may not be compatible with other software present already, a fragmented drive, uncontrolled applications, lack of maintenance, a full disk etc etc.. cause a serious system slowdown.
