hiyathis is a good point, esp if running XP, but you maybe will see a small improvement with Vista. You'd notice a bigger difference by giving it a good old spring-clean using CCleaner, disk cleanup (remember to also clean out the backup/shadow copies, will save you GBs of disk space) and defraggler more likely, and stopping all those unneeded programs from running on start-up
i have vista on the machine and i do use cc, disc cleanup and defrag the machine once every two weeks, but how do i do a clean up backup/shadow copies?0 -

go to computer, rigt-click your hard drive, select properties, click disk cleanup, and in the more options tab of the disk cleanup, click to delete shadow/backup copies ......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple

oh, and if you'v nverdone this before, jut check how much disk space it'll save you, and also it'll make your defrags more productive
p.s. excuse the spelling, not used to typing on this lappy ......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
