How to speed up Vista by rive0108[_19_]
Many people I see are having the problem in regards to either a slow boot up, or windows is slow to load Programs. I myself have 4GB of ram, and I am using a SATA RAID 0 config. This can result in heavy fragmentation and a slow system- especially after recording tv on MCE. Deframenting speeds up the system dramatically, BUT using the default defragmentation doesn't defrag files bigger than 64MB.
