Hey everyone,
I am just wondering some general tips that can be done to improve my computers performance.
It runs fine but faster is better.
I know to do disk cleanup's, uninstall things that are not used but I want to know anything else that would help.
I figure this forum would be a great place to ask because the past posts I have asked have gotten great response and help from.
