Hey guys, I just got a new computer (specs in signature below).. and well, I know there is a XP / VISTA Optimization post but I can not find one for WIN 7. (I do now have WIN 7 Home Premium (sp1) ..... )

any help on shutting down / getting rid of 40 something processed would be of great help as I am currently running "out-of-the-box" around 70-75. yeah i know.. OMG!!! WTH!!?? I would like to get it down to around 30 if i can, or lower.

Thanks.

I knew that Nick had posted about how / what to do to config Win7 i just couldnt find it. Maybe Nick should have his own section..... OPTIMIZING TUTORIALS. with all of his posts under that topic.

just a thought

Thanks Ground, exactly what I was looking for.

You're welcome, and I think so too. In fact I have a folder in my "favorites" menu called "Nick's Tweaks", for quick and easy access to his tutes. Wink
