Most Stable Build?

[Zidane24]

but its okay that I got both initial and max pagefile the same?

Sure...I just set it to grow to a max of 1GB for me if something was to go crazy...

I'm planning on buying more RAM but can only upgrade to a max 2GB on my lappy (something to do with the hardware specs of an ei 3101 )

I see...it should make a world of a difference in the performance on the laptop!

I was very surprised for this $298 laptop from walmart..u can look at my specs..its max is 3GB and came with 2GB, I added 1 more. But it gets a 3.3 score in this build and It just rocks for a cheap Compaq-HP laptop..

No kidding laptop RAM is very expensive...this laptop at first had 2GB of RAM and one of my friends bought 4GB of RAM but after realizing Windows Vista x86 couldn't use all 4GB of RAM he sold me his 4GB of RAM for my RAM and $35 to replace his laptop's 1 GB of RAM

...I tried to explain to him that using 64-bit is not a big deal anymore but he wouldn't listen...

wow...besides the CPU that laptop isn't half-bad...at that cost it was very much worth it

No kidding. I was even more surprised to see that this CPU supports 64Bit.

That's where mine really falls down Intel Celeron M (not x64 capable)

oh wow...that is bad...but for what its worth the Celeron M series for me was incredible compared to my P4 desktop I use to have!

I know the price is very high but I am going for the new solid state 128 gig drive with the new indilinx controller. Install OS to the sold state and install all apps and data to my sata drives. I might have to try messing with the pagefile. I never have been a big fan of sytem restore. Acronis is the way to go.

I just picked up 2 super talent sx 64gb ssd and running raid0. They are the newest thing from super talent.They use the new samsung 8 channel controller and have a 128mb cache onboard.They are rated for 200MB read 120MB write each.I got them at newegg for $173 U.S.
performance is awesome, none of the problems earlier ssd's suffered from.They might not look as flashy as some others, but they do perform at advertised speeds without a hiccup.W7 boot time for me 8sec.

Just a thought for those thinking of investing in ssd
