how do u get the best spead out your computer

one can speed up his computer by
1. increasing RAM
2. by keeping less loads of software in his computer
3. keep defragmenting on regular intervals
also to speed up your internet check your modems speed,and contact your service provider.Right-click on My Computer and select properties. This will tell you how much RAM (memory) you have. If you don't have at least 512 for WinXP/2000, you're probably low on memory.Open up My Computer and right-click on your C: drive. You should have many MB available (like over 50). If you don't, then your computer is probably suffering from low memory and excessing "paging" (swapping real memory to disk and back.)You may be able to add more memory with an upgrade. But first try to take care of the disk. If you are indeed low on disk space, look for things you no longer need and delete them. Clear your temporary internet files and delete off-line content. Clean out your temp folder. Archive (write to CD or other device) files you don't need to open all the time.Once that's done, reboot the computer and defragment the drive. (Right-click on the drive, select properties, then Tools, then defragment.)
