hello today were having a look at performance monitor and how to basically set up using view it can also all so we say customise it for using a basically second the theme of performance monitor is it has so many different counters okay so many different aspects of the entire window system that can be monitored for example looking at the CPUUsage right now and it’s doing overtime okay let’s actually see how to start performance monitor you basically govern your and [email protected] okay click on one run it and it opens that up okay now there are some times when you might look at the graph store so anything when that doesn’t quite make sense and you might want like a second opinion with a doctor you can actually start our performance monitor with a second opinion by typing in PERF MON.EXE/SYS MON_WMI okay and then you run that and then basically is using a this different system to monitor okay let’s clear all these things and then show how we start with okay when you start up it comes over here you click on the dairy generally has basic CPU running and now let’s had okay let’s add shall we say the disc okay that should be somewhere over your hard disk okay now let’s look at how we do for the PhysicalDisk okay basically click on their and then you can choose which ones you want okay basically we just want the last one is so disc read this transfer just great okay we don’t really need the rest fine week and click add and now basically this the monitoring what’s happening with our debts if we are looking at the way in is it has a nice

My one change the view okay you can change the view basically to a are you can go to a report view where basic disk numbers depending on how you want to use it okay now with the disc okay if we are seeing that our computers running a little bit slow okay and the disk drive is constantly flashing but were not getting enough out of it and we think it should be faster don’t check with the manufacturer’s website and see how many basically bytes per second okay the transfer rate should be what you read right answer et cetera on that and if the numbers coming out of here okay are not as per our expectations okay we can then maybe shall we say modify settings in device manager et cetera on the transfer type okay now another thing that you might want to look at is basically CPU cable to the processor okay for constantly seeing their computers extremely slow okay you might want to look at processor okay click on processor can add all of them okay that spacing on star Vanessa that adding all counters okay so basically were looking at the processor you might look at shall we say percent age used okay prisoners idle time okay you can fine-tune it based on each processor et cetera okay you might want are change the colours of things okay every day you can change the colours you can basically remove things okay that’s basically that there you can change with now you might also want to look at for example page files okay let’s just clear all these are right you add a new one over there and its pagefile now what this is gonna be showing is basically our pagefile how is it being utilised are we getting shall we say hundred percent usage 85% usage if our pagefile is being used extremely highly we might one collector we say go and modify a file with manually set so we say like fighting for a pagefile my wine preset okay or remain one asset-backed automatic okay also might want to consider if it’s constantly running at max pagefile you might want to consider adding more memory to your computer okay other thing that you might want to do is save your settings once you have your settings set up including shall we say how frequent it’s being monitored okay you could sample everyone second example you doing over a day you don’t want is a lot of data being much you might want and do it every so often Casey can change the duration and the sample in settings okay and then once you have that done you basically right click over there okay and then save settings as okay and given name and then save it where you want to hopefully this is helped running performance monitor is just a very simple introduction however please do look through it because it literally monitors most stuff what is ever gonna be needed for a computer thank you
