A bit lag after SP1
Hello guys.
I noticed after my installation of SP1 x64, I started to lag after first bootup.
Is this causing because my Windows needs to be a little used? The lag removed a bit over-time.
Just curious,

yeah, I don't think it's an issue with your machine, as the same happened to me. as in your case, it returned to a more normal speed after time, and the only issue I had was the computer dying as the motherboard shorted two weeks later (unrelated to windows)
so overall, yeah, it does just seem to be slow after updating to SP1, but does level out back to the normal speed over a while (took just a few days for me)

Yeah, It's always like that isn't?
This Windows I have is a fresh one, my first installation of 64-bit. Using your computer will stabilize and balance your computer, I believe.
Thanks biggles
EDIT; I'm a Chuck fan too
+1 Rep for you,

yeah, it's a pity windows does change it's speed after the SP1 update as that did rather give users a bad first impression of it :/
thanks for the rep and viva la buy more!

True.
The lag I'm experiencing was like.. pulling shortcut into Taskbar from the Start-orb. Or.. Delay on typing when i'm in the browser. Hopefully they'll smooth out.
Best Regards,

You'll find that in the early days after a fresh install Windows will take some time to sort out indexing and superfetch and updating.
Once those tasks have been finished, things should quicken up quite nicely.
In terms of superfetch, the sooner Windows learns which programs you use most the quicker it will get the idea, so it makes sense to use your favourite programs frequently at first.

Some information on Superfetch: SuperFetch: How it Works & Myths
The updating I mentioned was Windows Updates, de-fragging is the process where file fragments on a hard drive are reorganised in an orderly fashion, thereby cutting down the time it takes Windows to load a file.
