WWe recommend getting familiar with the Rescue Center prior to using Boost-Speed for the first time. You can specify which parts of the BoostSpeed package should back up before each run, how long those backups should be stored and how much disk space they may occupy.

BACKING UP WITH THE RESCUE CENTER6

Some tweaks may require a PC reboot, so it is best to close all programs prior to using System Advisor. This way you will be able to reboot your computer immedi-ately if BoostSpeed prompts you to do that after a certain tweak.

You can also apply all tweaks under one of the three categories simultaneously by clicking the link next to category name. If thethere are suggestions here you are not so sure about, you can check the box next to each to skip it.
