    Cheers for the replies. I'll probs just use the Xp for now and see if it makes a difference. I just think that it seems a bit clunky due to me installing/uninstalling a lot of programs recently. I'll set it overnight and just let it whir away!
    I'll certainly try the page file utility.

    VOPTXP should be included in this list, as it's extremely quick https://www.vopt.com. It also has the added bonus of not caring whether you format your HD as fat or ntfs.
