Computer works superbly when its first hand over to you after the OS and the initial programs are installed, gradually we find it slowing down, this happens because we keep installing software's to either test it out or use it once in a while and forget that its there, these programs utilse the memory which is key to run our computer at optimal speed.
Get rid of those s/w which you no more need it
Clean up your hard disk
Update your patches regular
Keep your virus definition file uptodate
Then your system will cruise along with you :)

HP India - Support Service
We use several HP Printers in our office all are under warrant, Support pack or AMC.
First calling to HP toll free from an non BSNL phone is not possible, now that they have number 30306363, I have to try several
time to get thru.
Now when you have your call attended, you provide your serial number if the printer is under Warranty which 1 year from the data of purchase
we have no problem, in case its under Support Pack or AMC, the next answer from the person is, sorry your printer is not under Warranty or AMC,
Then you will have to say its under support pack, then they will ask you Support Pack number, from which vendor you have taken the support pack details.
After good 2 to 3 days they will trace our support pack details and they decide to send an engineer to the office.
The engineer will again take 2 days to locate our office, because the document he gets had address of the Vendor thru who I purchased the printer and not our address.
For an 4hr response time support pack the call will be attended after 4 days.
Only good thing about HP, is the engineer who visits the site, once you get the engineer to the site, then your problem will be solved.
So guys, when you call HP Support make sure you have all the serial number, support pack number, printer model, printer model number only then you can expect response from them.
Lucky we just have only HP printers and not HP server.

Dell Support Service in India by Females
When ever I call Dell Support number in India, if the call is attended by an female member,
then I have never got a solution, when its an male there is an instant solution. Why is it so, I am sure the same training is provided to all at Dell.
No I am not against female providing support, they are very good when you come to Banking sector but computing support I cannot give them any points.
Let me know if any one else have faced such problem, leave your feedback in the comments section.
