    move your page file onto a seperate hard drive if possible. increase the page file to 1.5x your ram, not really necessary if you have a lot of ram but it still helps.

    Ah, this could be my post: Sorry for the spelling I type this in a hurry.

    Add this:
    38- If you have over 2GB of RAM and dual core CPU, go to C:\Windows\Prefetch, and empty it. Also you can disable it from registry (danger! your editing registry!, make backup before changing anything in registry. You can use the backup that you used in CCleaner, if you did not do any changes). Finally, reboot
    This last step is the one that will show the best results.
