如何讓你的電腦穩(wěn)定運行

　　電腦，又稱計算機，是機械的一種，現(xiàn)在使用的越來越多。接下來小編為大家整理了如何讓你的電腦穩(wěn)定運行，希望對你有幫助哦!

　　Getting a new PC is one thing. Keeping it running smoothly is quite another. While a personal computer should continue to perform predictably1 for years， veteran Windows users know all too well that system instability is a fact of life. Yet you can minimize the glitches2 that you experience with your computer by heeding3 the tips below.

　　First， install as little software as possible. You'll have fewer software-related conflicts and a system that is easier to manage. What's more， you'll have more disk space available for " virtual memory" ， a part of your hard drive that Windows sets aside4 to help manage your system.

　　Second， try not to run any more programs simultaneously than you absolutely need. You'll find that your computer runs more reliably if you limit the number of open applications.

　　Third，you should ensure that you have as much memory (RAM) in your PC as you need. If you run Windows 98 or Windows Millennium， your computer should have at least 128 megabytes5 (MB) of RAM——and more if you find that your hard drive is churning6 a lot as you work with your applications7. You can also get by with 128 MB of RAM if you use Windows NT or Windows 2000， but these operating systems will run much more smoothly if you have 256 MB of RAM or more.

　　Fourth， avoid installing beta8 software. Beta software， by its very nature， is pre? release software——meaning that it still has significant known bugs (or defects)。 The same goes， unfortunately， for many shareware programs. The authors of shareware programs， typically， have much less time and fewer resources available for testing their programs. Consequently， it's far more common to find shareware software that is buggy.

　　Fifth， make sure you buy good hardware. No-name products may be cheaper and sometimes just as good as name-brand products， but name-brand products usually became well-known because of their reliability. It's also wise to buy products from reputable companies because Windows will more often support the hardware that you purchase. If you are starting out with computers， it's also a good idea to buy ready? made systems from major manufacturers. These are likely to have been tested thoroughly with your operating system， and you will generally experience fewer problems.

　　Sixth， avoid the temptation to try to fix something that isn't broken. If your system is running well， there's no need to install a utility program that claims to make it run better or more reliably.

　　Seventh， do prepare for disaster. No matter how well your system runs when you get it， the day will come when it will need to be replaced. Hopefully， you will replace it because the technology has become outdated， but you may need to replace it also because the hard drive crashes or you begin experiencing problems that no one can figure out. That's why it's important to back up your important files regularly. Whether you use a tape backup device or a CD-RW drive， it's important to map out9 a regular backup schedule and to stick to it.

　　獲得一臺新電腦是一碼事，讓它流暢地運行是另一碼事。雖然，一臺個人電腦肯定應(yīng)該連續(xù)使用多年，但資深的電腦使用者們很清楚，系統(tǒng)不穩(wěn)定是生活中不爭的事實。但如果能夠注意到以下提示，你使用電腦時，遇到的系統(tǒng)小故障數(shù)量就會減到最少。

　　第一，安裝盡可能少的軟件，你就會遇到盡可能少的與軟件有關(guān)的沖突，系統(tǒng)也會更易于操作;而且，也會有更多的硬盤空間用來做"虛擬內(nèi)存".Windows就會將節(jié)省下來的部分硬盤用來輔助操作系統(tǒng)。

　　第二，如果不是必需的話，盡可能不要同時運行多個程序。你會發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果限制打開的應(yīng)用程序的數(shù)量，你的電腦會運行得更加穩(wěn)定。

　　第三，應(yīng)該保證在你的電腦中有足夠的內(nèi)存來滿足你的需要。如果運行Windows98或Windows Millennium操作系統(tǒng)，電腦中至少要有128兆內(nèi)存，或者當(dāng)你使用應(yīng)用軟件時，如果發(fā)現(xiàn)系統(tǒng)顛簸許久的話，需要的內(nèi)存就更多。如果使用 Windows NT或Windows2000操作系統(tǒng)，你也可以用128兆內(nèi)存，但是如果你有256兆或者更多的內(nèi)存，那么這兩套操作系統(tǒng)就會運行更加流暢。

　　第四，避免安裝試用版軟件。試用版軟件，就其本質(zhì)來說，就是預(yù)先發(fā)行試用的軟件，這就意味著它還有重大的、已知的錯誤(或缺陷)。同樣遺憾的是，許多共享式軟件也是如此。共享式軟件的設(shè)計者們通常沒有足夠的時間和資源來測試他們的程序，因此發(fā)現(xiàn)共享式軟件有缺陷是相當(dāng)普遍的事實。

　　第五，一定要保證你買的硬件的質(zhì)量。沒名的雜牌硬件產(chǎn)品可能比較便宜而且有時與品牌硬件質(zhì)量一樣好，但是品牌產(chǎn)品之所以出名就是因為他們的穩(wěn)定性。另外一個明智的作法就是買信譽較好的公司的產(chǎn)品，因為Windows更有可能支持你所購買的它們的硬件。如果你正準(zhǔn)備攢一臺新電腦，從主要生產(chǎn)商那購買現(xiàn)成的系統(tǒng)軟件這也是個好主意。這些系統(tǒng)軟件很可能已經(jīng)全面地在你的操作系統(tǒng)下測試過，通常情況下，你不會遇到什么問題。

　　第六，避免試圖修補本沒有損壞的軟件。如果電腦系統(tǒng)運行良好，你就沒有必要安裝據(jù)稱能使你的系統(tǒng)運行得更好或更穩(wěn)定的功能性軟件程序。

　　第七，一定要防患于未然。無論最初你的操作系統(tǒng)運行得多么好，終究會有一天你需要重新安裝你的計算機，但愿你重新安裝僅是因為技術(shù)過時了，但也可能是因為硬件崩潰或是開始遇到?jīng)]有人能夠解決的問題，這就是經(jīng)常給重要文件做備份之所以重要的原因。不管你是用軟盤備份還是用光盤刻錄機備份，重要的是要制訂一份經(jīng)常備份的時間表，并堅持執(zhí)行它。
