A New Lease Of Life: Tuning Up An Ailing PC





A New Lease Of Life: Tuning Up An Ailing PC



Watching your PC grind to a halt is a frustrating experience for any technology user. It can feel like the gradual slow-down process begins as soon as you plug your shiny new device in for the first time: a few seconds longer to boot up here, a crashed program there, and before you know it you’re keeping a good book on standby to occupy you during the endless loading screens.

However, PC slowdown isn’t something you need to resign yourself to. There are a number of strategies you can use to help you get your computer back in peak condition, with all of them significantly cheaper than buying a new machine.



Run a Tune-Up Program  Tune-up programs are all-in-one solutions designed to identify and fix common causes of sluggish PC operation. A little like a virus checker, the idea behind the tune-up program is usually that you simply hit “run” and go make a coffee while the software works its magic. Common targets for tune-up programs include your registry (a collection of settings and system files that your computer needs to run, which can become clogged with junk very quickly once you’ve installed and deleted a few programs), and any temporary file folders that should have been emptied but haven’t.

On the whole, tune-up software can provide a quick fix for those who want to get their machine back to something approaching full strength as quickly as possible. However, they are rarely a permanent solution, as the problems they fix can often reoccur. In addition, some tune-up programs are designed to run permanently in the background while you work, and can cause as many speed issues as they resolve.

Clean the Gunk From Your PCYou’d probably be amazed at how dirty the inside of your PC can get, and you might also be surprised what effect this can have on performance. Cleaning your computer requires a degree of technical know-how, and generally requires you to go through the nerve-wracking process of opening your machine’s casing. However, learning to clean your computer is good practice, and can be a prudent step toward keeping your computer healthy for as long as possible.

The best way to go about cleaning your device is with a can of compressed air. These computer technician mainstays look a little like a deodorant can, squirting compressed air from a small nozzle at the top. This is great for working on the insides of a computer, which can be very sensitive and susceptible to static electricity from your hands. Make sure you don’t use too much on delicate components like fans, however. Once you’re finished with the compressed air, use a cotton swab to gently prise any remaining grime loose.

Use a Computer Repair ServiceIf tweaking your computer yourself fails, then contracting a computer repair service may well be your best bet. Computer repairs aren’t just limited to major faults: many providers offer tune-up or tweaking services designed to improve the condition of a working but slow PC.

Sending your computer away to be worked on can seem like a big risk, especially if your machine has personal or sensitive data on it. Happily, some companies now offer online computer repairs, whereby technicians can examine and work on your computer using remote access software. As well as being convenient, this means that you don’t risk having your machine damaged in transit, or having guests visit potentially sensitive areas of your workplace.

Visions: organize and view your photos in 3D


Visions: organize and view your photos in 3D


Launch most image managers, even for the first time, you’ll feel immediately at home. And that’s because they tend to follow very similar designs. You’ll have album or folder groupings on the left, and image thumbnails on the right; double-clicking something displays it full-screen; right-clicking gives you more options; and in just a few seconds you’ll have a very good understanding of what the program can do.
This is all very easy to use, then. But some say there are better ways to browse your images.Visions, for instance, drops the usual flat folders to present your photos in a configurable 3D interface, which (the developers claim) offers all kind of image management benefits. Really? We downloaded a copy to find out more.
On first launch Visions asks which drives you’d like to check for images. Point the program in the right direction and it’ll scan for folders containing a lot of photos, and each of these will then be represented by a “board”, a page (complete with thumbnails) which you can manipulate in 3D space.
How? Choose “Cylinder” from the Layout list, for instance, and you’ll see multiple boards appear to wrap around your screen. Each one displays the contents of a separate folder, complete with thumbnails. And you can zoom in or out as you like, change the camera view, or select a new layout as appropriate (there are options like “Carousel”, “Colosseum”, “Horizontal Wheel”, “Vertical Wheel” and more).
Visions can present your images in 3D space - but does this really offer any practical benefits?
None of this is particularly intuitive. The kind of click-drag mouse actions you’d expect to work mostly do nothing at all, and instead you have to do things like hold down the space bar as you move the mouse to zoom in or look around.
Once you’ve figured out the navigation basics, though, things improve. And there are some plus points to the system. The ability to view multiple folders at once, for instance, can help when you’re moving files around: just select the images you need on each board, then drag and drop to move them wherever you like. (This can work on an ad hoc basis, too – simply drag and drop folders into Visions as required and it’ll rearrange them according to your current layout.)
Visions isn’t just about its flashy front end, though. The program also has a surprisingly capable “Editing Room”, which has almost 50 fixes, adjustments and effect you can apply (fix colour, brightness, gamma, levels, sharpness, and many more). And while these work with a click, most have further sliders and settings you can use to refine the results.
And just in case that’s not enough, Visions also provides a few desktop publishing-like templates where your photos can be used (postcards, greetings cards, photo albums, calendars and more), as well as allowing you to upload images directly to your Flickr or 23 account.
The program’s 3D navigation system may feel a little cumbersome, then, but if you can master that (or just live with it) then Visions has plenty of other appealing features, and on balance it still earns a thumbs up from us.

Media Player Classic – BE: a very promising media player


Media Player Classic – BE: a very promising media player


If you’ve ever explored the world of Windows video players then you’ll almost certainly have come across Media Player Classic (compact, easy to use, but a little dated now) and its spin-off Home Cinema project (more powerful, plenty of features).
What you might not have noticed, though, is the latest addition to the family, Media Player Classic-BE (for “Black Edition”, apparently). It’s a recent offshoot from Home Cinema and looks almost exactly the same, but already has one notable addition and plenty of smaller tweaks to enjoy.
Our favourite new addition is the program’s ability to preview different parts of a movie. If you want to view some other section, there’s no longer any need to click various parts of the seek bar until you end up in the right area. Instead, just hover your mouse cursor over a point on the bar, and MPC-BE will show you a thumbnail representing that frame (even if it’s still playing some other part of the video). If that’s not what you need, just move the mouse pointer across the bar, watching as the frames update, and only click when you’re in the right place.

The new preview feature lets you look ahead to any other point in the movie
The down side to this is it does require a fair amount of system resources, so might not work so well on ancient hardware, or if (say) you’re trying to view an HD clip over a slow network connection. Which perhaps is why the feature is turned off by default (click View > Options > Interface and check “Use the preview in the search” to enable it). It worked just fine on our system, though, and could well be enough to justify installing the program all on its own.
Of course the program has more, though.
Support for many minor decoders should help the program import even more file types, for instance (it can even open images now). MPC-BE provides more subtitle options and controls, as well as a new Sub button on the toolbar to help you access them. While there are plenty of smaller additions which may help, just occasionally – like support for the Rotate tag in MP4 and MOV files.
And of course you still have the many great features of MPC-Home Cinema, including its extreme configurability. The program doesn’t just give you access to 180+ options and commands, for instance – it allows you to set up a customisable hotkey for each and every one.
Media Player Classic – BE isn’t exactly a revolution in video playing, then, but it’s a neat improvement on an already good program, and we’ll be very interested to see where the project goes next.

Batch download entire web galleries in a click with NeoDownloader Lite


 

Batch download entire web galleries in a click with NeoDownloader Lite


Browsers are fine for displaying content, but not nearly as useful when you want to download it, and this is especially true with web galleries. No matter how simple the collection of images, you’ll still probably have to work them all manually, right-clicking each in turn and trying to figure out the appropriate option (“Save as”, “Save link as”, whatever it might be).
If you’d prefer an easy life, though, you could forget all the usual hassles and turn to NeoDownloader Lite, instead. While the program has some issues, it’s still a great way to simplify and speed up the process of downloading images from the web.
And the program’s advantages start immediately, with the option to sample a Repository of almost 50 projects across a range of categories: “Digital Art”, “Photography”, “Funny”, “Wallpapers”, and “Girls and Celebrities” (the latter is mostly just celebs in bikinis and similar shots, nothing likely to offend based on our observations, although if you’re concerned about age appropriateness then you might want to check it out).
Getting started was extremely easy, too. We just chose a project – “Windows 7 Wallpapers”, clicked Start, then watched as the program downloaded and displayed more than 120 gorgeous high resolution photos. There are thousands of other images just waiting to be accessed, and if you’re after some quality wallpapers then these sample projects could justify installing NeoDownloader Lite all on their own.
The program grabs images from your chosen site, then displays then via its built-in viewer
Of course in reality, though, you’ll probably want to try downloading images from a few URLs of your own, and that’s also fairly straightforward, at least initially. Simply drag and drop a URL from your browser onto NeoDownloader, create a new project, and it should begin downloading. But if there are problems, then you can tweak the settings in various way to try and improve its results.
As we mentioned, there are issues here. This free version of NeoDownloader is restricted to a download speed of 128 Kb/s, for instance; it can only grab 3 images simultaneously, and a maximum of 2000 per project.
And while downloading images from your own choice of sites usually just works, if there are issues then it’s not always very obvious what to do. At the core of NeoDownloader Lite is a very powerful offline browser, and there are plenty of options to explore, none of which are particularly well documented.
Still, if you’re looking for an easier way to bulk download images from at least some sites thenNeoDownloader Lite should prove a useful tool. Its Repository alone is a great collection of graphics links.
And if you like the program, it might also be worth checking out the full commercial NeoDownloader program. This removes the download speed and other restrictions, adds the ability to batch download any other content type (music files, videos, archives, more), and allows you to download from password-protected sites, amongst other extras.

Resonic: a fast, easy-to-use new music player


Resonic: a fast, easy-to-use new music player


The PC market for audio players is a little on the crowded side, with free tools to do just about anything you want, so it’s not exactly easy for new programs to make an impression. There are still companies queuing up to try their luck, though, and the latest contender is Resonic, an interesting tool now available in its first public alpha release.
Why should you care? Developers Liqube clearly understand they have to get the fundamentals right first, and the program duly offers support for a host of audio formats. The current list is MP3, MP2, MP1, OGG, M4A, MP4, AAC, MPC, MP+, OPUS, SPX; WMA, WMA Pro, WMA Lossless; WAV, AIFF, FLAC, APE, ALAC, WV, TTA; IT, XM, S3M, MTM and MOD: sounds good to us.
Resonic’s Explorer-like interface makes the program easy to use, too. Just choose a folder and it’ll cycle through each of the songs in sequence (although the usual “shuffle” and “repeat” options are also available).
And whatever playback mode you’re using, as soon as a particular track begins you’ll see a waveform for that song, sometimes handy when you need to seek to some other point. Although if you don’t need it, this can be replaced with a couple of alternative visualisations (the Linear Analyzer or Logarithmic Analyzer) in a click or two.

Resonic will play the contents of any folder you choose
If you like to control your audio players from the keyboard then the good news is that there are hotkeys for all the main Resonic playback actions (although they’re not yet customisable). And the program includes some nice extra touches, too. So if you need to talk to someone, say, holding down the space bar will conveniently drop the master volume right down, restoring it to normal when you’re done.
Browse the menu and there are one or two small but welcome extras to be found. Like the built-in timer, for instance, which can be set up to sleep, hibernate, lock, log off or power down your PC after a defined period of time.
And we noticed a few thoughtful touches elsewhere. So if you click the “resonic” logo, for instance, instead of just blindly opening its home page, a message explains that the program now wants to launch your web browser, and politely asks if that would be okay with you. A small thing, but it works – immediately you get the feeling that this is a tool you can trust, something which isn’t going to install a browser toolbar (or anything else even faintly dubious) without getting your express permission.
Resonic doesn’t have any single killer feature which would compel you to use it, then. But then it’s only an early alpha version, and already the program is fast, capable, and easy to control and use. If you’re in the market for a simple audio player, take a look: otherwise, keep an eye on any future releases – it’ll be very interesting to see how the program develops.

AstroGrep: a simple, flexible Windows search tool


AstroGrep: a simple, flexible Windows search tool


Are you tired of the standard Windows search tool? You’re not alone. Its indexing component is difficult to control, and uses too many resources; we’ve found the index can become corrupted for no apparent reason; and filtering the results just isn’t as easy as it needs to be.
Fortunately there are plenty of interesting alternatives around, andAstroGrep is one of the best: compact, powerful yet also simple to use, it’s a search tool which should appeal to just about everyone.
The program’s first advantage is its portability. There’s no setup here, no installation, no annoying indexing module – just unzip the core files (which require barely 300KB of disk space) and it’s ready to run just about anywhere.
The interface is well designed, too. AstroGrep is mostly about searching your system for documents containing specific keywords, and it only takes a moment to enter your search text, and tell the program where to look.
AstroGrep's preview pane highlights any matches for your search keywords
If you need more, though, just scrolling down reveals plenty of options. So you can limit your search according to their size or modification date, for instance. Or turn on regular expression support for even more powerful search possibilities.
And the good news continues when you’re defined your query, and clicked “Search”. AstroGrep displays matches as they’re found, no need to wait until it’s finished. And clicking any file in the list displays a preview of the document, with your keywords highlighted, which could be useful when picking out the matches you need.
There are some problems, of course. The most notable being that, because there’s no indexing, the program must crawl your hard drive for every search, which is always going to cut performance.
Still, even here there are things you can do. Making sure to search only the path you need is key, but there are also options to skip hidden or system files or folders, as well as the ability to exclude particular file types from the search entirely.
Put it all together, then, and we find AstroGrep is fast enough for most purposes, and its mix of power, portability and ease of use make for an excellent all-round PC search tool.
