<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Meets Its Claims
PC Booster by Avanquest UK increases your computer's efficiency by tweaking RAM speeds, detecting optimum running settings for your PC, and using hidden system files to make your computer run faster and cleaner. A CNET review of the product reports that it lives up to these promises. There's no way to waste money on it as it's a free program.
On the Other: Low User Ratings
PC Booster has received largely negative reviews because users become frustrated with the program's tendency to crash. Moreover, users report that PC Booster's tweaks can be performed without the program, making it redundant. A computer user doesn't need PC booster to put hidden system files to work; that can be achieved by editing the Windows registry.
Bottom Line
PC Booster may not make your 1998 Dell run the computer game "Crysis," but it will smooth over many systems operations and improve overall performance. It's a free program, so there's no real harm in trying it. If it doesn't work well enough for you, you can always remove it.
