I decided to plug in an MB USB flash drive to enable ready boost, and things seems to be snappier even more. Loading control panel doesn't lag anymore. I installed Firefox with a bunch of add-ons.

It runs fine so far. Another hard crash. Tweaking the system takes time as things are not in the same place as XP.

However, the basic theme does have a tiny yet neat eye candy. Posted by pika at PM. Labels: aero , beta , GMA , hp , sn , windows 7. Newer Post Older Post Home.
