QUOTE(cowithgun @ Feb 19 2011, 04:11 PM) Easiest is to use the external DVD player. acer's recovery partition hotkey is alt-f10? i never knew u need to press altIf you want to do a clean install, I recommend NOT to remove the recovery partition. As long as the partition is there, you can restore to factory setting with just Alt-F10. No need recovery CD. |

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Feb 22 2011, 10:14 AM) i recommend try disable the following to see if there is improvement: im aware about the objectdock during the login (after the windows login screen) is slow, what about if i set netlimiter and ghost to manual start in services?1. Objectdock 2. cfosspeed 3. netlimiter For deamon tool, u need to rename the spdt.sys to spdt.sys.anything to effectively disable it. to enable it back, u need to rename it back to spdt.sys and reboot to use it back. this driver is slow.

QUOTE ok i thought i should share my experience ,i had a similar problem and then i played arround and here is my solution , when you set the task to autohide ,and when the taskbar is at the same position as the dock,so what i have done is ,i unhide the windows taskbar then unlocked the windows taskbar and then moved it to a different site thanthe dock ,now it runs alot faster on startup and it seems alot more stable ,hope that helps"i am running windows vista ultimate btw" i dont understand this part |

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Feb 22 2011, 01:15 PM) Didnt know it was necessary! I tested that method when I was using 11.1 but it didnt work. Surprisingly, it work with 11.2 how do i enable this thing? from the site u mentioned earlier in notebookreview?Now can already, even in switchable card like mine. Yours should work too.

ive finally achieved this results
![]() by formatting the laptop, installing the drivers along with the amd drivers under the switchable 1st then discrete mode, updated ccc11.2 under discrete and switchable mode after that. installed all software that i always used startup, disabled acronis, idm, office service, acronis set to manual start used uwt to change the windows explorer behave (disabled full row selection) and the time above is what im able to maintain. right now is going to update my windows to check whether it will make my boot slower or not. i got a question about w7sp1, last time i installed it, took me 1 hour to complete and in the end, i got my win7 as evaluation copy for 1 year. any ideas? |

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Feb 24 2011, 05:43 PM) win7 sp1 just launched on 16 Feb 2011, and public access on 22 Feb 2011. any earlier version could potentially a beta or release candidate which you should avoid. well... ive backed up my system before the update process takes place. after that im going to time my boot again after windows set up the updates...after you update, u should run WPT again. good luck! regarding the sp1, right now is ok to download right? not going to be evaluation copy is it? |

well... sp1 is up in my laptop, the process is very painstakingly long. my boot time is 140-200 second after the windows update along with the sp1 updates
if my windows update failed halfway through, it installs and i install another one again after cancelled it, will it affect my system performances? p/s: i still havent used the wpt yet |
