I know there are several guides online with little tips and tricks for increasing vista speed and reducing boot time but I can't seem to find a recent one that looks trustworthy.

Does anyone have a link for a guide that they've used and was made quite recently?

I didn't get a chance to look at the guides, but how do you"dl more ram"? In a manner of speaking, could someone give me an example? I can;t really think of any logical explanation for it

The urge to anti-vista troll is so strong.

I'm better than that though. Just barely.

A lot of the tips and tricks on the internet are bullshit, btw. The caching is mostly done when things are idle, and disabling Aero can hurt performance if you've got a good video card, because the GPU handles most of it.

A ridiculously awesome guide to tweaking Windows. This guy's also made a bunch of guides teaching you to optimize your settings for various games and video cards.
