Windows 7 - Windows 7 performance on IBM t43

Helly everyone

I tried the early beta of windows 7 on my IBM t43 (see specs in profile), but thought it was a little slow.

Now I actually bought the Windows 7 (for my desktop), but since I am going to be home for three months due to work, I only have my T43 and wants to install Windows 7 on that.

Do anyone have some experience with the newer version and tips for improving performance for this older singlecore computer?

Thanks in advance.

Max out the ram on the machine for starters

pretty sure that 2 gb is maximum for the T43, but can be wrong?

Disable some features like Aero, Transperancy, Trror reports,Use msconfig to minimal the startup items, Defrag ur HD, Install latest drives!!!, try and i think u will feel its at least like xp performance.
