Alright, fellow '90s tech enthusiasts! Is your Windows 95 machine feeling a bit sluggish? Are you tired of waiting for those sweet, sweet pixels to paint themselves across your CRT monitor? Fear not! With a little elbow grease and some good ol' fashioned know-how, we can get your system humming like it's 1995 all over again. First things first, let's talk about RAM. In the world of Windows 95, more RAM is almost always better. If you're rocking a measly 8MB, consider upgrading to 16MB or even 32MB if your motherboard supports it. Trust me, you'll notice a difference. Next up, your hard drive. Defragmenting your hard drive is like giving it a spring cleaning. Over time, files get scattered all over the place, making your computer work harder to find them. Run the Disk Defragmenter tool (Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter) regularly to keep things tidy. Now, let's dive into some software tweaks. Windows 95 comes with a bunch of extra programs and features that you might not even use. Get rid of them! Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall anything you don't need. Also, take a look at your Startup folder (Start > Programs > Startup). Anything in this folder will automatically launch when you boot up your computer, slowing things down. Remove any unnecessary programs from this folder to speed up your boot time. With these tips and tricks, your Windows 95 machine will be running smoother than ever. Now get out there and enjoy the wonders of the '90s!
