If you have access to the Windows Installation Disc that came with your computer I would reinstall windows without all of the bell and whistle Acer applications that are just taking up space and slowing your system down. If you need help on how to format your hard drive and install windows please visit this tutorial. Also, remember to back up your data before you format your hard drive. All of your information will BE ERASED when you format.

If you don't feel comfortable reinstalling windows to get rid of the proprietary software that came with your system, than you can obviously uninstall the above mentioned applications. Keep in mind this may not speed up your PC.



These are the items you will want to keep. If you delete these you can have problems:



acer epower managemet

adibe flash player active x

adobe reader9

Microsoft off home and student

realtek hight defintio audio driver

realtek usb 2.0 card reader

synaptics pointing device driver

windows live update

1.Disable/Uncheck those Applications that you don't require at Startup.

a. Got o START > RUN

b. And type " msconfig " and click OKAY. ( without the quotes )

c. In the STARTUP uncheck (carefully) those programs that you don't require during startup.

d. Click APPLY and then OKAY.



2. Uninstall any programs that you don't require. (like all your games)



3. Defragment all your drives.

a. Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

b. Click Defragment Now.



4. You can also get a high capacity RAM, if you don't have one already.

Deleting programs doesn't make the computer run faster.



Other than that, don't delete

Acer

Adobe

Atheros

ATI

Carbonite

Cisco

Microsoft

Realtek

Syaptics



Everything else is up to whether you want the programs or not. (Uninstall them, don't delete them.)
