probably fresh installed windows with some tweaking. mine around 30-40sec.

What else tweak to do?
Mine is Regular Windows XP Pro SP2 with 1G RAM (0401 BIOS)

Below Tweaks i had done:
1. Change the pagefile to 256mb, 256mb MAX
2. Compress Drive to save same space on SSD (Windows installed inside)
3. The tweak from Asus manual had done
4. AVG Antivirus Free Edition installed + updated
5. Windows updates full and the tweak to delete the hotfix + backup file had done.
6. Use CCleaner always.

What else i miss out?

i turn off pagefile completely since i have 1 gig ram.

Compress Drive to save same space on SSD <----- if i'm not mistaken, this will make it slower

after u uncompress, sure take a lot of space.. eat a lot more space than the space before you did the compression part.. i dunno what cause it.... ended up reformatting whole thing again.

if turn off page file, performance not much difference. . however, hdd activity is much less than before. at startup also hdd led not much blinking. one more, you can save hdd space..

turning off pagefile is to prevent more wearing to the SSD if i am not mistaken.
after u turn off pagefile , remember to delete the pagefile.sys in the c drive folder
that will recover abt 20-25% of your SSD disk space. btw dont need to compress the drive .
my windows xp after update , office 2003 , those AV and Spyware scanner i still got 1.5gb left.

Ok, jz received the call from a Asus Specialist.
The Memory upgrade can do it by Asus service center.
You guys can bring ur own memory with ur Eee pc to Asus Service center for upgrade.
Dun worry, bout buying a new Ram from them.
They will replace another warranty sticker for u Eee.

Cheers...  rclxms.gif

Hi Kok Wei,
I just call up the centre today to make appointment for memory upgrade. The techician told me this 'Eee PC model cannot upgrade memory'. I were refer to Mr. Jackie at HO (Tel: 03-21416650). Jackie explanation is that this Eee PC is suppose to be a gadget, hence, memory cannot be upgrade, policy wise. Hardware wise, can upgrade by end user, but will void warranty.

Just wonder, anyone that have done memory upgrade at Asus Serive center.

Thanks,

Decide to go ahead, void warrantty and upgrade memory to 2GB. Just back from Digital Mall. Manage to find a 2GB ram cost RM180 Apacer SOD PC2-5300 CL5 from Thunder Match. Been looking around for several days, price is around Rm280 to RM310. I thought this is a good buy.
