How to Improve a Computer's Performance in Microsoft Vista by Using Task Manager

The Task Manager is a tool built into the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system that allows you to view information about programs that are running on your computer. You can also view your computer's resource usage to troubleshoot issues, such as when your computer is freezing. Often, a computer freezes because one or more programs are attempting to use too much memory or CPU on your computer. Shutting down programs that are not responding or using up resources can improve your computer's performance.

1. Press the "Ctrl," "Alt" and "Del" keys on your keyboard at the same time. 
 

2. Click "Start Task Manager" from the menu. The Task Manager will appear in a new window. 

3. Navigate to the "Applications" tab if it is not already open. 

4. Click on any application that is listed as "Not Responding," and then click "End Task" to shut it down. A program that is not responding has crashed or frozen and will cause your computer to run more slowly until you have closed it. 

5. Click the "Performance" tab to view charts that display your computer's memory and CPU usage. The closer your computer is to running at 100% for either of these, the slower your computer will run. If you are running at 100% of either, to improve your computer's performance, you need to close down programs that are using a lot of memory or CPU. 

6. Navigate to the "Processes" tab to see a list of programs and processes running on your computer. 

7.  Click the header for the "CPU" or "Memory" column to organize the processes by CPU usage or memory usage. This displays the processes that are using the most resources on your computer. 

8. Record the names of the processes and any information in the "Description" column. This helps to determine programs that might cause issues on your computer the next time you boot it up. 

9. Click the process name to highlight it, and then click "End Process" to close it. As you close down these processes, your computer's performance will increase.

Physical care and internal maintenance for computers

Computers are just like any other pieces of equipment, they need to be cleaned and cared for in order to get the most out of them. Most computers don't really see anything in the way of special care; their owners let them sit on a desk year round to collect dust. In turn, a computer whose internal parts are caked with dust will overheat faster and find itself running a lot slower than it should. 

• Physical Care 

Computers need to be cleaned properly to keep in working order condition. You should clean your computer monitor about once a month by lightly spraying glass cleaner into a soft rag and wiping the monitor down. You should never spray the cleaner onto the monitor itself. Spraying substances onto a monitor will cause streaks, and depending how much substance you use, might permanently streak the monitor. Wipe the keyboard down with disinfectant wipes; you should never use a spray on your keyboard. If you use a spray on your keyboard, you chance having the liquid run down between the keys and damaging the keyboard. If something gets stuck between keys on your keyboard, you should use tweezers to remove it after turning off and unplugging your computer. If you simply try to brush the debris away, you chance knocking it down into the keyboard and losing whichever key it falls under. Once a year, spray down the insides of your computer with a small can of compressed air. Dust will often build up around parts, causing them to overheat easier and slowing down your computer. If you are using a standard mouse, you can remove the bottom frame to take out a small rubber ball. In the mouse where this ball sits are four small tracks. Use a small cotton swab to remove any dust and hairs that are on these tracks. 

• Internal Maintenance 

A computer is a store house for mass amounts of data, so you could say a computer is like a big bookcase. Like real bookcases, they can become cluttered and unorganized, which can be frustrating when you're trying to find something. Having a cluttered computer also slows down the processing time for your normal every day functions. Defragmenting your computer will organize files in a fashion where the computer can easily access everything. This will allow for more RAM, which the computer will use for various tasks throughout its use. Most computers can be set to defrag on a regular routine; this feature is best used to defrag once a week. Besides defragging, the computer should have some kind of anti-virus program on it and perform routine scans to make sure you don't have any spyware or other malicious programs slowing down your computer.

Different Computer Parts and Their Functions

case

A computer has many different components. Each part has a specific function. Whether you need to replace a part, are thinking about building a computer, or just looking for some additional information, it's important to understand the basic computer parts and what they do.

Case
The case is the part of your computer that holds all the other parts. Some common types of computer cases are: full-tower, mid-tower, mini-tower, and laptop. If you have a desktop computer, you are likely using a mid-tower; if you are using a notebook computer, you have a laptop case.

Motherboard
The motherboard is the part of your computer that wires all of the other parts together. Every component of your computer, from the DVD burner to the CPU, will connect directly into the motherboard. Motherboard specs are typically designed around which processor (CPU) the computer uses. For example, if your computer uses an Intel processor, you will need an Intel compatible motherboard.

Processor (CPU)
The processor, or CPU, of a computer is basically the brains of the computer. The processor is responsible for interpreting every code it receives from the other computer components, and making it usable to your operating system. Some common types of processors are Intel Core 2 Duo and AMD Phenom. A processor's speed will often determine the overall speed of your computer.

Hard drive 
The hard drive part of your computer is very simple. Essentially, it is the part of the computer that stores all your information. If you upload a picture to your computer, it is stored on the hard drive. Hard drive capacity is measure in gigabytes, or GB. There are typically two ways that hard drives can connect to the motherboard: SATA and IDE.

Vedio Cards(Graphic Cards)
A graphic card is the component of your computer that interprets video signal. These cards are necessary so that you can connect a monitor to your computer. There are many types of graphic cards available: anything from high-end gaming cards to TV tuner cards. Some popular graphic card manufacturers are NVIDIA, ATI, and EVGA

Ram (Memory)
You may have heard of people upgrading the RAM in their computers. RAM is the part of your computer that is used as instant memory. RAM is always in use. For example, if you run many programs at once, you may want to upgrade your RAM because your computer is using more memory. RAM comes in many different configurations, such as DDR2 and DDR3. The type of motherboard you have will determine your RAM.

Optical Drive
The last main part of a computer is the optical drive. An optical drive is many times the drive you would use to burn CDs, DVDs, Blu-Ray discs and more. Optical drives can be either slot loading, or tray loading and come in many different configurations. Optical drives connect directly to the motherboard of the computer.
