Diagnosing and Fixing Problems with Your Computer – Can You Do it Yourself ?

PowerSuite 2010Having computer problems? I know that trying to figure out and fix your computer when it’s not working right can be frustrating. There are so many help tools and web sites out there geared towards experienced computer users who have an expert understanding of how their system works. But what is the average computer user like you and me to do when something goes wrong with their computer? Tech support and computer maintenance can be very expensive, and like your car mechanic, you are dependent on the technician to be truthful with explaining what’s wrong and what needs to be done to fix it.

One option I use for learning about problems with your system is the integrated Windows help files. These help files will assist you in pinpointing the problem with your system and help you find a solution. However, I’ve found that the integrated help files often do not provide the level of detail needed to accurately diagnose a problem, especially if it is something outside of Windows that is causing the problem.
Another option I rely on is Microsoft’s knowledge base on their web site. The knowledge base is a compendium of known issues that users have reported to Microsoft and solutions for these problems. Depending on the issue you are having, the solutions could be quite technical and complicated, and making any mistakes could compromise your system further.
Finally, you can turn to online forums and message boards that offer solutions to various operating system and hardware issues. However, I have found that many of these sites are not closely moderated, and you could end up downloading what you think is a program to fix your problem that ends up being a virus or mall-ware, making your situation even worse!
If your computer is so compromised that it doesn’t run at all, accessing the help options provided above is impossible if you do not have access to another healthy computer. If your computer is in this state, your only solution is to have a boot able disk that you can use to get your computer started. Windows allows you to create a recovery disk, but it does not provide you with the tools to diagnose and repair all of the potential problems your computer may have.
Luckily for average computer users like you and me, Spotmau’s award-winning software Power Suite Professional provides users with a new, innovative computer maintenance option. Power Suite Professional goes above and beyond a standard recovery disk, providing you with a complete solution for all of your computer maintenance needs, including:

But frist you should know a little about what the registry does.

Cause #1: The Windows registry stores information about a computer’s configuration like a database repository. Installing and uninstalling software will make your registry a mess, leading to decreased PC performance and causing computer crashes.

The registry size keeps growing when you use Windows. When the registry becomes very large, your computer’s performance will be decayed and unstable. Some computer users even spend a lot of time trying to go through the registry and edit it manually. Not only can this be a daunting task, it is also a risky one.

Cause #2: When you are surfing internet, some malicious plug-ins may automatically install in the system through security loopholes in the system. These malicious plug-ins may change your system registry entries so as to cause different kind of errors or problems in your PC.

Cause #3: After long-term use of computer, the downloading of a large number of music, videos and movies from the Internet may result in the slowdown of your PC. It just like your room will become a mess without cleaning; our computer will be filled with a mass of junk files or duplicate files after a long operation too. These useless files take away the precious space of your Disk as the junks accumulate.

Cause #4: The incorrect and incomplete un-installation or deletion of some files or applications may feed your system registry with invalid registry information. You might have uninstalled certain application not through “Add or Remove Programs” on “Control Panel”, or certain object or file has been moved inappropriately. Finally, this unknown or misplaced information will be more and more accumulative, and begin to stick your registry, so as to slow down the speed of your computer and result in error message and system crash. You may also realize that the startup process of your computer is much slower than before.
