To get the most out of your training and to be ready for real time trading you will need to get your computer in tip-top shape. One thing you don’t want is a slow computer, or one that crashes all the time. So here are some helpful tips to getting you on the right track.
Adding Ram
First of all you will need a computer that is least a Pentium II or higher. You don’t have to go out and buy the fastest one unless you really want to. A computer with a speed of 300 Mhz or higher will be sufficient.
Even with a slower 300 Mhz computer, you can speed up the processing time greatly by adding more RAM. RAM (random access memory) is the lifeblood of any computer. The more RAM you have, the faster you computer will process (open programs, run several programs at once, etc.). I have an old 300 Mhz computer that had 64Mb of RAM when I bought it. I have since added 256 Mb more for a total 320 Mb of RAM. It is like a new computer now. So the next thing is to add RAM to your computer. I suggest having at least 256 Mb of RAM as a minimum. RAM is cheap these days. The best way to have it added is to take your computer into a computer store and have them add it. Most stores will do this for free as it is relatively easy to install on most computers.
Properties, usually at the bottom of the selection. A“System Properties” box will appear on your monitor. The amount of RAM will be listed under “Computer” on the General tab. Now you have a smoking fast machine, but it is still slow. Why? Well there are some other things that have to be done also.
