Hello News Groups

In this mornings thread I put out it would appear that I was very vague.
But in my efforts please let try to get to the piont. The antivirus that I
installed was a free anti virus AVG and the old computer that I was referring
to sole purpose is for hands on. As some referred as tweeking. It is just
part of my the learning experience.

In being vague in the early thread I didn't mention that you learn by doing
and not just someone to give you the answers. I was looking for ideas. Some
ideas that I could use as a spring board of my topic and research on my own
by googling. After googling and looking at my options from there I will try
to figure out what to accomplish, what works and what doesn't work and what
to stay away from. As what another once told me the internet is full of free
information.

So in my efforts in working with ( and specifically tweeking this computer )
can anyone give me information, ideas, downloads, suggestions anything that I
could start to figure Windows XP Professional. Just information to try to
search for in tweeking this system. Something to go by, in doing all of this
searching / fact finding. Just try to start me off and I'll try to take it
from there.
 
in your search for winvana,

you really need to get to
know (gauge) your system and
it's capabilities with the
operating system.

in order to this the right
way,

you would need to start
with a clean disk and then
install windows and any
hardware drivers that your
system needs.

you will then have the opportunity
gauge your systems performance.

afterwards if any tweaking you do
is believed to improve its performance,
but does not.

then you will have to find out what
is the problem and either fix
it or live with it.

for example, the computers performance
or software tweaks you do are
not proving useful due to hardware
limitations.

so you may need to upgrade
the memory and maybe
get more disk space.

the two above are usually the
cause for poor performance.

only by doing the above
can you then ascertain / establish a
gauge to help you judge the
performance of third party software
on your system.
