1) Flamenko, still rep-?
2) I can't believe no one mentioned blackviper site... a wealth of info on optimizing vista and xp
http://www.blackviper.com/

For all the TOP VISTA TWEAKS you can ever want, go here : http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?...ineo&showcat=4

That little forum should have all the tweaks and then some for Vista. ALL. Not just some. ALL. You don't have to wait on this thread daily for another tweak to be posted.

"Get CCleaner!!! It Works with 32/64Bit"


Thats not a tweak, thats just downloading a program to clean out your computer.

The Vista Forums has everything you want and need concerning tweaks.

Be careful with Black viper's tweaks. It will cause problems with wireless and tablets if you don't know what you're doing. Even the "safe mode" will disable things you need...you can live with you computer. If you guys would like, I can put together a shorter list of what I'd recommend is absolutely safe. Just post if you're interested.

I would really appreciate that. I don't know too much about computers, and a list that would allow me to do everything that I'm currently doing, but get better performance would be great. I'm not going to mess around with Black Viper's tweaks as I'm connected wireless 90% of the time.

flamenko, the TuneXp tip and the TMM tip both made a HUGE difference in my startup time, and how fast my laptop runs. I didn't get a before time for my boot time, but now it's 1:05, which isn't the fastest, but it's WAY faster than it was.
