10個方式和秘密改進景色表現

窗口景色有一些新的安全和功能特點以優越，典雅和美好的視覺經驗，例如窗口航空玻璃透明度作用、輕碰3D和等。 但有和使能所有這些特點，有將被支付的價格，儘管有局限到計算機的能力在多快它可能跑。 然而，如果您認為您的景色表現在平價之下并且減慢，有可能幫助景色快速地跑的有些把戲，除運用各種各樣的更新之外例如 表現和可靠性更新 并且服務組裝1 (SP1)。

1. 增加更多記憶(RAM)

   不容置疑，窗口景色消耗很多記憶。 Windows XP只可能跑和飛行根據系統以規格512 MB，但景色將爬行以低這`』 specs。 實際上， 1G不是足够，并且2G大概被認為一`初級的』記憶水準為景色。 要使能和打開所有特別視覺圖解作用，它推薦升級到記憶4GB。 幸運地， RAM模塊現今得到越来越便宜。 肯定買另外的記憶的金錢為更加快速的速度和更好的經驗意志值得花費，不用遺憾。

2. 使用ReadyBoost

   如果您擁有筆記本或便攜式計算機，或者您的計算機不再有所有額外記憶槽孔可利用，或者已經擊中主板支持的最大RAM。 在這種情況下，景色有另一個特點，稱ReadyBoost，允許系統使用ReadyBoost服從的USB閃光基本內存(USB閃光驅動，筆驅動，記憶鑰匙， USB鑰匙，拇指驅動，閃存全部屬於這個類別)擴展記憶。 它也有增加的好處，檢索數據的速度從閃存比物理硬盤驅動器存放的虛擬內存文件快速。 如果您有USB閃存驅動(或您能買一，因為它比RAM便宜，但是確定它是高速的并且支持ReadyBoost)，并且使用它打開ReadyBoost特點，您能控制ReadyBoost使用的空間。 這是有用保持某一空間量自由存放您自己的數據。

3. 使用一臺好視頻加速器卡片或GPU (圖形處理器單位)顯示適配器

   仍然轉動在緩慢的5400轉每分鐘的沒有一個長的一會兒前，硬盤驅動器(HDD)沒有貯藏所和與CPU和RAM一起，沒有被認為是瓶頸為表現被駕駛的計算機。 然而，這個趨向改變了。 With more and more graphics intensive application, especially on Vista with outstanding visual affect, the bottleneck is actually due to graphics card or display adapter and Video RAM (VRAM). The built-in on-board video card which integrated in the motherboard, such as Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) or Extreme Graphics, is simply not good enough. The lower throughput performance of on board graphics card is caused especially by performance penalty imposed as both the CPU and GPU have to access to main memory over the same bus, as the video card is sharing the computer’s main memory for storage. Thus a good high end video card is necessary with large amount of dedicated VRAM. And, if you want to play games in Vista, the video card must support DirectX 10.

4. Delete and Disable Extra Unnecessary Startup Programs

   When you buy a computer system pre-installed with Windows Vista, you will find that there are a lot of extra, additional, unnecessary, and worse useless programs automatically run themselves on startup. These applications include, but not limited to, drivers and software provided by the OEM (original equipment manufacturer), anti-virus software, anti-spyware software, instant messaging program and many many more. These programs, most are not used or little used, not only take up memory resources when they’re running silently in background, but will also slow down the computer start up speed. So, for the startup items that you not using, it’s best to disable them from starting up. To do so, use System Configuration Tool (MSConfig) that comes with Vista.

5. Turn Off Appearance Visual Effects

   Windows Vista provides a lot of appearance improvement visual effects such as animated controls and elements inside Windows, transparent glass, desktop composition, window animation when minimizing and maximizing, smooth edge of screen fonts, show window contents while dragging, menu fading and shadow effect, shadow on mouse pointer and etc. All these features will use memory and CPU resources. Turning off and disabling these visual effects in System Properties’ Performance Options (select “Adjust for best performance”) will allow system operation to run faster.

6. Adjust Indexing Options

   Unlike previous operating system, Vista has done tremendous improvement to hard disk search function, but the searching depends greatly on full indexing done on files and programs stored on the HDD hard disk drive. The index allows files, folders and programs can be found faster, and almost immediately when searching is done. When indexing process is running, it will affect and slow down the speed of other running program. The workaround to this problem is to enable indexing only on folders or drives that contain documents you will search, and exclude the rest of the area from indexing. To adjust which place you want to include or exclude in indexing, open Indexing Options under System and Maintenance in Control Panel. Using this trick, overall computer performance can be improved without disabling indexing.

7. Disk Cleanup and Defragmentation

   An old trick to tune up Windows system. Fragmented data on hard disk will slow down the computer operation. Vista provides two utilities, namely Disk Cleanup to delete and remove unused files, files in recycle bin, log files, dump files, downloaded program files, temporary Internet files, hibernation files, thumbnails and other temporary files, and Disk Defragmenter to defragment the disk drivers. Both tools can be found by clicking on Start button, then go to All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools. You can also schedule the defragment program to run automatically periodically to tune the performance of system. Using third party defragment tool is possible too.

8. Change the Power Plan Setting

   Adjust and change the preferred power plan setting to “High Performance”. This setting can be set in the Power Options applet under System and Maintenance in Control Panel. By default, Vista will set preferred power plan option to “Balanced”, restricting amount of power supply it can consumes to 50% under normal circumstances. Of course, you have to be prepared for higher electricity bill.

9. Turn Off Windows Sidebar

   Windows Sidebar is cool, but if you’re not using it, or not fully utilize sidebar, turning if off will save some system resources. To close Sidebar permanently, right click on Sidebar icon on notification area (system tray), and select “Exit”, then answer “No” if prompted whether want to start Sidebar automatically when Windows starts. You can also right click on sidebar itself and then select Properties to adjust whether to start Sidebar on Windows boots up setting. If you don’t want to disable Sidebar, remove as much as possible unnecessary gadgets and plugins.

10. Turn Off Windows Aero

    If you still feel your system is not fast enough, turning off and disable Windows Aero theme will likely to make the system flies and run a lot faster. Windows Aero Glass effect is one of the most attractive feature in Vista, and one of the main reason people is migrating to Vista. So it’s up to your choice of performance, or visual effect. To disable Aero, right click on desktop, select “Personalize”, then click on “Windows Color and Appearance” link. Next click on “Open classic appearance properties for more color options” link. In the Appearance Setting dialog window, set Color Scheme to anything other than Windows Aero in the drop down menu. “Windows Vista Classic” is a natural choice.
