PC-ZIPPER is software that will do exactly that without sacrificing performance. The speed of a PC, XT, AT or even a 386 (and their clones) is rather arbitrarily determined by the manufacturer. In actuality, if all the memory in your computer is sound there is no reason why you can't be running a little faster. And who doesn't want to run a little faster? Ziptest is the first of two programs that come with PC-ZIPPER. This utility calls procedures, executes a routine, times it, and then records the results. Upon completion, Ziptest checks to find which procedure resulted in an increase in processor speed. The results create a curve, where the optimum system performance is at the "crest" of the curve. Zip, the main program, then can be set to maximize the speed of your computer. If you didn't understand all that, then just believe it works. PC-ZIPPER increased the speed of this reviewer's AT by nearly one full MHz according to Landmarks Speed test (note that no speed testing software is included with PC-ZIPPER). You don't have to understand it to use it -- it's easy to install and control even for the beginner. PC-ZIPPER will check for weak or faulty memory, it can be turned off without rebooting, and it can be used to slow your computer slightly. And, best of all, it uses NO memory.
