For many people the joy of buying a new computer can be quite short lived as within a matter of months (and sometimes weeks) the new Pc can be performing no better than the last one and in some cases system performance can be even worse so do you need to buy another computer? No!

First things first, have you done anything to maintain your computer since you bought it or have been merrily using it without any thought for ongoing maintenance. A computer is a bit like a car, if you don’t service it from time to time it just won’t work as well.

So if you are unfamiliar with the workings of a computer system where do you begin with this computer maintenance? A good place to start would be your hard drive for example, did you know that you can tidy up the data very effectivly on your hard drive and move it around so it is all neat and tidy. It’s a bit like tidying up a filing cabinet or a set of drawers so you can find things easily.

A hard drive works in a similar way and get just as untidy as a real filing cabinet if you just dump the files back in which is essentially what your computer does.

Can you imagine how difficult it would be if you had to find a file in a friends filing cabinet but you had no idea where they had put it. How long do you think it would take you to find it compared to if you knew where it was?

In hard drive terms this is called disk fragmentation so defragmentation should form an essential part of your weekly or background system maintaninance.

Microsoft windows operating system actually comes with its own very basic disk defragmentation software if you know where to find it. But when compared to other defragmentation utilities it is quite basic.

Most computer professionals prefer to use specialized utilities for defragmenting a harddrive and these specialized utilities are available to everyone and very easy to use.

To ensure you are not one of those people that end up with a slow Pc make sure you give your system some basic maintenance on an ongoing basis. You can find more information about this and other basic maintenance task you can make from Computer Repair UK. It is also recommended that your read their online guide about fixing a slow computer. You could save yourself a lot of money.
