QUOTE(sarf2k4 @ Feb 16 2011, 10:51 PM) oh... completed the defragment process... i guess im going to try out on how its going after having only 7 startups from msconfig 1 question though, i got this server.exe inside c:\user\...\appdata\roaming\install\server.exe it started automatically even without any registry in the hklm or hklu or even msconfig. its like a batch file or something and not listed inside task manager once executed. the only thing is that the cmd pops up a while for about fraction of a second then it closed. should i worry about this application? here is my boot time [attachmentid=2046327] 32bit processes are stored in HKLM\Software\Wow64Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run... if even msconfig cant detect, try use Autoruns (Microsoft)...

QUOTE(elm0001 @ Feb 16 2011, 11:47 PM) i told my friend i'm considering this lappy, but then they wouldn't recommend me to buy because of the brand (acer) lolol. my friend said that as well, becos of their trauma with acer warranties so their families is 'anti-acer'... this thing is great for an all-rounder laptop with a great battery life... only that it comes with 2gb ddr3, which is a must add another 2gb ram, crapware also came with it but i just bought a chip mag today, they recommended 'Crapware Cleaner' to clean those crap softwares
