    You can delete everything in the start folder, remove most of the programs on msconfig folder, and get rid of your log-in screen.

    No need to do AS-SSD. Just do CDM with 3x 100MB.

    Your boot time will be fastest with a clean install. If you have already done that you could look into some tweaks, as mentioned here:

    Boot timer didnt work on my system so used bootracer.

    Got 11 sec. to login and 18 to desktop with my normal startup profile.
    Got the same time's when disabeling everything on startup in msconfig.

    18 sec. isn't bad at all.
    Laptopless again.

    OK. Disabling UAC worked.
    (BTW Nice review )

    I should probably post this on your other thread, but it doesn't compete with current SATA II/III boot times. But, the results for my new M4 128GB SSD are not bad, considering I'm currently limited to SATA I on a thinkpad X61s, Core 2 Duo 1.6Ghz, 4GB (need to apply a modded bios to upgrade to SATA II - just need the courage to do it )

    The performance increase from the standard hard drive to the M4 128GB (even on SATA I) is just amazing! (and obviously it will work even better when I upgrade to SATA II, and then a bit further down the line to SATA III)

    I've attached CDM and bootTimer results in case anyone is interested...

    These are my CDM results (256 GB M4). I did it twice... So do they look alright?
