But when noticing the computer is running slow, you should defragment the hard disk regularly to speed up windows 7. There are many aspects that you can do to speed up Windows 7 , but a lot of people do belittle the powerful function of a simple disk defragmentation in improving Windows performance.   Even though Windows 7 is said to be smarter and more efficient, there still disk fragments occur when involving to the allocation of files to free space on a magnetic disk. The more fragments on the hard disk, the more time it will cost when inputting/ outputting the files, significantly slow down the computer. So to effectively speed up Windows 7, a periodical disk defragmentation is necessary.   To defragment Windows 7, it will be very easily to go through Start => All Programs => Accessories => System Tool to select Disk Defragmenter. Here, you can select the volume to be defragmented and the click “Analyze” and then “Defragment” to begin the disk defragmentation. You can select to defragment the volume one by one, and select all simultaneously.   As the rule of thumb, to defragment Windows 7 much faster and effectively, it is better to resort to a professional defrag utility like Advanced Defrag rather than use the disk defragmenter for it consumes too much time in finishing the defragment process.
