Get The Most out of XP

There are many XP enhancers to choose from and they are all Freeware.

CCleaner is an extremely popular program for a very good reason: It works great! Whenever the computer is running a little slow, run this program to fix the problem. With excellent cache cleaning capabilities and a registry cleaner, you really can't go wrong with CCleaner. As an added bonus, the included uninstaller works better than the Add/Remove programs control panel in Windows XP. Keep a shortcut to CCleaner on the desktop.

RAMBooster is one of the best programs available to free up RAM in a pinch. If you're getting ready to run a memory-intensive program such as Adobe PhotoShop, a quick optimize from RAMBooster can give you the space you need to run the program more efficiently. You can even have it run on a schedule, so you know your computer is using its available RAM the best it can throughout your workday. Of course, if you really want the best experience, you should just get more RAM, but this program is great for those who don't have that option.

Watch as Disk Defrag puts your files back together. Auslogics Disk Defrag is the third and final program in this particular set of free XP speed boosters. It runs much faster than Windows XP's defrag utility, and you'll notice a difference in system performance immediately. Windows files and applications become fragmented over time, causing Windows to work harder to run smoothly. Auslogics Disk Defrag puts those fragments back together for you to make Windows run at peak efficiency.
