<![CDATA[<p>Registry cleaners are useful tools to help speed up your computers performance.&amp;nbsp; Many people overlook the benefits of registry cleaners, but they are actually one of the best tools, if not the best tool, that you can have on your computer.&amp;nbsp; By having a good registry cleaner installed on your computer, you are going to eliminate your computer from crashes and from stalls.&amp;nbsp; Your computer will always run as fast as the day you bought it.&amp;nbsp; By utilizing a registry cleaner, you will more than likely prolong the life of your computer by at least a few years compared to if you were running nothing to keep your computer organized.</p>
<p>There are many places on the internet where you can get registry cleaners.&amp;nbsp; Some people give them away as free downloads, and other people sell them.&amp;nbsp; If you are looking for a good registry cleaner, you have found the right resource.&amp;nbsp; With our registry cleaners, you will be able to repair your pc in no time.</p>
<p>Good registry cleaners consist of the ability to clear and clean out hidden unused files.&amp;nbsp; These files consist of shortcuts, dll files, registry files, cache files, temporary internet files and much more.&amp;nbsp; A registry cleaner will only keep on your computer what is actually being used.&amp;nbsp; If there are outdated files and drivers, a registry cleaner will clean and repair these files and even offer updates so that your computer speed will actually increase, from its previous state.&amp;nbsp; It will do everything that is necessary to get your computer running the way it should be.</p>

<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Want to amaze your friends by changing to the color of your command promt, well now you can and it will only take a few minutes. Here we go,</p>
<ol>
<li>Open your Command Prompt. Hold the "windows key" and press "R". Then type in "CMD" and hit "enter".</li>
<li>Right Click on the CMD icon, in the top left corner or anywhere along that top bar.</li>
<li>Click "Properties" and Go to the "Colors" tab of the window that opens.</li>
<li>Select the "Screen Background" Bubble and Pick a color. If the one that you want is not a preset you can make it with the Selected Color Values box. Do the same for the "Screen Text" bubble. (I like to choose black for the background and lime green for the text to make it look like the matrix.)</li>
<li>Click "ok". When the pop-up box comes up. Select the bottom option and then "Ok".</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>You're done!</strong></p>

<title>Speed Up Your Computer</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Computers/Speed-Up-Your-Computer.226445</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Is your computer as fast as you want it to be? Was it faster when you bought it then it is now? If you answered "yes", then you will want to read this guide. It will show you how to get your computer back to its original speed and who doesn't want a fast computer?</p>
<p>So what are we actually going to be doing you may ask? I will be showing you how to turn off some of the unwanted and useless programs that are running on your computer so you will be able to do many more things with your computer.</p>
<p>First, we'll check all of the things that are running on your computer. I bet you don't even know what half of these processes are. Simply hit Ctrl + Alt + Del. Then click on the processes tab. Look at all that junk! You don't even need a quarter of that stuff running on your computer.</p>
<p>Next, i will show you how to shut them down. Click on the "Start" menu and click on "run" or hold the "windows key" and press "R". When the run box appears type in "MSCONFIG" (without the "'s of course). Wait for the window to fully load. Now, go over to the services tab. On the bottom check the check box the "Hide all Microsoft Services". This is because most, if not all, of the Microsoft Services you need to run your computer.</p>
<p>Now you can start un-checking boxes that are not important. Say you have "iPod Service" running and you dont have an iPod anymore, you would uncheck that box. Another example is "PnkBsterA". It is for a game i dont play anymore. Only try to uncheck boxes that have an Unknown Manufacturer. Go thorugh the whole list, using your own judgement, to shut down programs.</p>
<p>After you have completed the "Services" tab, do the same thing with the "StartUp" tab. I would leave a majorty of these programs running but you can shut down a few if you wish. Look for the ones that don't have the "HKLM/Software/Windowns" or "HKCU/Software/Windows" location becuase these are required when to run your operating system.</p>
<p>Finnally, click the "OK" button. The MSCONFIG window will close and another pop-up box will come up. It will ask you to restsart your computer. I recomend doing it imediatly but if you choose to, you can do it later. Now when your computer restarts, look how much faster it is and how little time it takes to boot up. One more thing, follow this guide often because you are always installing new things on your computer. Thanks for reading and Good Luck!</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FSpeed-Up-Your-Computer.226445"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FSpeed-Up-Your-Computer.226445" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Optimize Your Computer by Cleaning It Up</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Hardware/Hard-Drives/Optimize-Your-Computer-by-Cleaning-It-Up.192751</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Nothing slows your computer down more than overloading your hard drive with a bunch of files.  Just because you may not think you are saving or creating a lot files does not necessarily mean that you aren't.  Every time you boot up your machine, go on the internet or run a program, small files are created to keep track of what that software is doing, or cookies on the internet so when you go to the website again it loads faster for you.</p>
<p>You probably have a ton of files sitting right now on your PC from surfing the internet that you didn't even know existed.  Help speed up your computer by cleaning those files out.  There are a couple of options here for you if you are running a Windows based PC.</p>
<p>Start by going to your internet options first.  You can get there by Clicking on &amp;ldquo;Start&amp;rdquo; then &amp;ldquo;Settings&amp;rdquo; then &amp;ldquo;Control Panel&amp;rdquo; and then finally double clicking &amp;ldquo;Internet Options&amp;rdquo; from the control panel list.</p>
<p>On the &amp;ldquo;General&amp;rdquo; you will see the option &amp;ldquo;Delete&amp;rdquo; under the heading &amp;ldquo;Browser history&amp;rdquo;.  Clicking that button will permanently delete all of the files in your temporary internet directory.</p>
<p>On this tab you can also erase your cookies as well.  That is entirely up to you.  Ok so that gives you a start but it is not the be all end all of cleaning up your computer.  Windows provides a nice utility called Disk Cleanup.  To run this program, click on &amp;ldquo;Start&amp;rdquo;, then click on &amp;ldquo;Program Files&amp;rdquo; (or &amp;ldquo;All Programs&amp;rdquo; depending on the version of windows you are running, then click on &amp;ldquo;Accessories&amp;rdquo;, then &amp;ldquo;System Tools&amp;rdquo; and finally click on &amp;ldquo;Disk Cleanup&amp;rdquo;.</p>
<p>If you have multiple hard drives you will be asked which hard drive you want to clean up.  The default is normal your &amp;ldquo;C&amp;rdquo; drive.  Choose your &amp;ldquo;C&amp;rdquo; drive for now and click on &amp;ldquo;Ok&amp;rdquo;.  The system will begin analyzing your computer.  It may take a while depending on the size of your hard drive and how &amp;ldquo;messy&amp;rdquo; it is.</p>
<p>Once your computer has finished analyzing your hard drive a window will pop up giving you information on what should be done in order to free up space and clean up your computer.  The computer's recommendations should be checked and is normally enough to go by.  Click the &amp;ldquo;Ok&amp;rdquo; button and the clean up process will begin.</p>
<p>Again depending on the size of your hard drive, speed of your computer and other factors this could take a while.  Once it is complete, you will have cleaned your hard drive up nicely.</p>
<p>If you do not see an increase in your machines performance you may need to run disk defrag to optimize your hard drive.  You can learn more about disk defrag in my other article.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FHardware%2FHard-Drives%2FOptimize-Your-Computer-by-Cleaning-It-Up.192751"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FHardware%2FHard-Drives%2FOptimize-Your-Computer-by-Cleaning-It-Up.192751" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Five Ways to Get Your Computer the Way You Want It: Tips and Tweaks</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Operating-Systems/Windows/Five-Ways-to-Get-Your-Computer-the-Way-You-Want-It-Tips-and-Tweaks.128231</link>

<![CDATA[<p>I know that aot of people were disappointed with vistas release, people claimed that it was merely XP with a funky skin. So I decided it was about time I could see what Vista could do. I trawled through the depths of Windows Vista and found some pretty fun little things.</p>
 <ol> 
<li>
<h3>Voice recognition&amp;nbsp;</h3>
Voice recognition used to be a separate program that costs &amp;pound;30 (60$) upwards as they are rather complex pieces of programming. Voice recognition can shave hours off work or be used for a little fun. Find it under ease of access on the start menu and start talking to your computer!<br /></li>
 
<li>
<h3>Disable automatic startup programs&amp;nbsp;</h3>
This is the first thing I do whenever I get a new computer. It can save so much time when starting up your computer by closing a few unnecessary programs. Just go into the start menu and type in "msconfig" this will bring up a box. Click the "startup" tab and deselect any undesirable programs. The more you remove the faster your PC gets! (this isn't just a vista tip, it works on all windows operating systems)<br /></li>
 
<li>
<h3>Windows sidebar&amp;nbsp;</h3>
How many of you have had that sidebar sat at the side of the screen without adding anything new to it? Here are some really good widgets that I recommend.<br /></li>
 
<li>
<h3>Save battery&amp;nbsp;</h3>
If you're a laptop user like myself then you'll know how frustrating it is to run out of battery in the middle of something important. This little gadget will help you save those precious minutes of battery by turning off aero whenever your system is low on battery. <br /></li>
 
<li>
<h3>Have a cleanup&amp;nbsp;</h3>
Vista is packed full of maintenance software such as disk defraggers, virus scanners and firewalls. The majority of the can be found on the start menu &amp;gt; accessories &amp;gt; system tools</li>
