Tips on how to speed up your computer

[Shaun Carollo]

I am in the market for a new laptop. I think its gonna be a Sony Vaio FS series. 15.4" XBRITE screen, 1.7 Ghz, 1 GB DDR RAM, Dual Layer DVD Burner. Anyways, while researching I stumbled upon this site...

Definitly worth a bookmark

I 've used this site frequently to hunt down the source of sneaky programs running in my task list, just taking up resources:

Another good task list site:

Same thing here for windows XP services...many unneeded useless services can be disabled and increase resources. Guy gives a pretty good explaination and recommended actions:
