Guys, have you ever notice about your PC performance? I have, but almost never give a special attention. If my PC goes slow or maybe hang, I restart it. If the problem still occurs, I probably spare some time to defrag it. That’s all.

But, while browsing the internet tonight, I found a very good article regarding PC performance. The title called “PC Performance A Users Guide to the Computers Mind“. I must give two thumbs up to the writer because of its “easy but very important” things he wrote in that article.

Some tips, very easy tips exactly, but almost forgotten because of my busy time. Let’s see his guidance…

Delete cookies on regular basis. If we did not do this, it will deteriorates the performance of our PC. Although it can make a faster speed of internet connection, but it also store our personal information. Believe me, it is very harmful.
Install variety of Antivirus application in order to have the best protection. McAfee is great, nor Norton. Kaspersky is good too. But each antivirus has its own plus and minus.
Defrag the PC at least once a week.
Perform Disc Cleanup regularly.
Turn off unnecessary running program from Windows Task Manager.
Limiting the amount of graphics shown on the computer screen by using the Control Panel.
Regularly check the update of our softwares.

That’s all. Simple, isn’t it?

Thus, once Microsoft Windows has been installed, we also have to re-install another program one by one. Next problem could be happen, regarding activation of some program. Yeah, sometimes we do not remember where did we put the activation data of some program.

However, actually we can pass this activation if we re-installing Microsoft Office. Follow the steps below to re-installing Microsoft Office Without Activation.

Make sure that you have previously installed Microsoft Office in your computer.
Before re-installing Microsoft Windows, run the Windows Explorer.

Create a new folder to save a backup file.
Go to folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Applications Data\Microsoft Office\Data
Find files “data.dat” and “data.bak” in that folder. Save those two files into your own folder outside (folder you have created before).
You can now re-installing the Microsoft Windows.
Once Windows installed, then you can start the Windows in Safe Mode.
Copy those two files from your own folder to the new created C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Applications Data\Microsoft Office\Data
