November 7, 2008 · Filed Under Software · Comment 

Most memory tweak programs just doesn’t seems to work, even if they do, it is at the expense of having more memory and a lagging computer. The problem with most memory tweaking tool is when they force windows to free up memory. This old trick then causes your system to lag when windows has to reprocess the lost memory when you need to use the ideal software.

The author for Cleanmem has found a way to counter this ancient problem, programs that hog memories are reduced without affecting the computer’s performance.

According to the Author:

A good example is this, say you have Firefox installed and the service takes 37mb of memory just sitting there when you’re not browsing the web! When cleanmem is ran it uses only 600kb and wont grow again until it actually is used. The same goes for all processes.

If a process needs more memory it gets it back in a sec, I have it set to run every 30 min in the windows task schedule. You wont notice any performance hit of any kind even when pushing your system to the max playing a heavy 3d game (In my case I tested it playing Age Of Conan)

November 6, 2008 · Filed Under Software · Comment 

While using Photoshop for large files at 300dpi, there is a high possibility your computer would run out of memory and scratch disk, what do you do next?
Adding new RAM is one of the many solutions, but it is going to cost you money, changing your scratch disk from C drive to D when both drives are from the same hard disk does little in solving the problem. The solution is to hook up your removable hard disk to your USB port and set it as your new scratch disk, or simply give eBoostr a try, you’ll need a thumb drive, preferably a 4GB thumb drive.

What is eBoostr?

eBoostr™ is an alternative solution to Vista’s ReadyBoost and SuperFetch technologies now available on Windows XP. It speeds up your PC and improves application responsiveness by using flash memory and free RAM as an extra layer of performance-boosting cache for your PC. Use up to four inexpensive flash devices to speed up your system. Add more speed to your PC without any hardware upgrade!

The eBoostr trial version has no time expiration and you can use it for as long as you desire. Nevertheless the product demo is fully functional only for 4 hours after each system boot. Forget about googling for eboostr 2.0.2 serial or eboostr 2.0.2 keygen, 4 hours is really more than enough, after all, staring at the monitor constantly for so many hours does little good for your health, eboostr could double up as a reminder every 4 hours the need for cigarette breaks.

p.s. Adobe Photoshop CS4 utilizes the graphic card process (GPU) for rendering, which is technically faster than the intel CPU.
