INTRODUCTION

PCBoost is a program which allows you to run programs much faster then the original programmer intended.  With little to no effort you can easily make programs & games run faster on your computer without having to purchase a new PC.  Many programs and games often use a minimal amount of CPU power which often leads to the CPU being idle and really not much use at all.  PCBoost takes advantage of this by allocating more CPU power to the currently active program/game.  All of this is done automatically without having you to lift one finger.  PCBoost is a great affordable alternative to purchasing a new computer and can in no way harm or destroy a computer, while providing equivalent power that a faster processor would.  PCBoost is quite easy to use and understand.  With a few button pushes and setting changes the application is ready to work.  PCBoost starts up automatically when Windows® does and manages the CPU/Processor according to the user's specifications.  Try PCBoost for 28 days and if you find it useful please do register.
