Comments:
<0> used loosely
<0> Just leave the swap file alone. Windows knows exactly what to do with it
<1> say, while we're on the topic of pagefiles - it'd be a good idea to maximize your pagefile size, right?
<0> just let windows manage it
<1> ie make it 4096 mb
<2> If you're really looking to improve Page File performance, move it to a fixed size page file on a fast hard drive that is separate from the system drive.
<2> Other than that, I wouldn't worry much about it.
<3> what are you doing that requires such attention to the apge file?
<3> i wouldnt **** with it on a home computer
<1> I'm just curious really
<0> okay enouigh about the swapfile! =P
<2> digidog: I worry about it some, because I do lots of image editing.
<4> 7200RPM
<1> I suppose curiosity isn't really for windows, more a linux thing :P
<2> Big images, like 200MB+
<3> well you are arent the average user
<2> Right.
<3> you're super average
<4> but is the PageFile.sys even used at the moment?
<1> don't delete it!
<3> rworks
<1> that is a huge no
<3> Nikon D-50?
<3> good cam?
<2> Go ahead and delete it.
<3> er
<2> digidog: It's OK.
<4> There already 725M in my commit charge
<0> WestBalle: your pagefiel is always used.
<2> I think the D70 is better.
<0> you asked for advice.
<3> well ok
<2> D70s.
<0> this is your advive: stop ****ing with **** you don't understand.
<3> i only have 600 bucks
<0> You will break it and i have no pity for when **** doesn't work anymore.
<3> and i need something that does 360's too
<4> I am trying to conserve space in my C:\
<4> Its getting very low
<4> From it
<2> The D50 is OK.
<1> well, don't even think of deleting stuff that ends in .sys
<2> It's missing some of the nice features of the D70.
<3> its only 5 mp i think
<2> But it's a good price.
<4> Theres a folder named 'System Volume Information' in C:\
<2> No, D50 has the same 6mp sensor that the D70 has.
<3> anything else around 600 or so that is betteR?
<4> & I can't access it.
<0> WestBalle: stop ****ing with **** you don't understand. Remove unncessary files.
<0> The ones you put there.
<0> I'm serious meng!
<0> the system volume information is used for system restore.
<0> If you disable it you may free up a percentage of your hard drive.
<2> digidog: The Canon 350D can't be had for that price, can it?
<4> It was disabled
<4> I never enabled it
<3> !google canon 350D
<2> I haven't looked at prices for a while.
<5> http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos350d/
<0> Then you don't need to worry about the system volume information folder
<4> Ohh I think I know why it appeared now
<4> Its probobly that Virus Scanner I installed. The AVG Anti Virus program.
<3> oh
<3> i like that rworks
<6> I got my 350D for $700 body only I think
<0> maybe your virus scanner filled your hard drive! LOL.
<0> ERSKATEZ
<3> http://www.acephotodigital.com/sc/review-product-information.asp?id=964597276&rf=froogle&dfdate=01_07_2006
<3> $750
<2> Yeah?
<4> Virus Scanner takes 100M to run
<3> ah body only
<2> A bit more than you wanted to spend.
<1> er, AVG doesn't create a folder called "System volume information"
<0> it's a joke garth!
<4> How about revealing .sys files
<1> it creates one folder called $VAULT$.avg in the root of C
<4> Yes
<0> okay WestBalle let's sum this up. If it's in C:\Windows, or c:\, or is hidden, or is a system file, don't touch it.
<0> anything else is gold
<0> okay?
<0> or the system volume folder.
<1> I'll drink to that, sartan
<3> especially documents and settings\username\application data
<0> you can safely delete the c:\windows\$ntuninstall$ folders too, WestBalle
<4> I know that. C:\Windows is no.
<3> delete that ****
<0> that may free up a bit
<1> you could also do a search for .bak
<1> *.bak, rather
<1> and delete those
<1> although those are of course backups
<4> I have a like 200 $ntuninstall$ folders
<0> delete em.
<1> but if you've not got system restore on, I'm guessing backup doesn't matter
<4> is it safe
<0> it's uninstall information for windows hotfixes
<4> Okay, I'll delete all the C:\Windows\'$ntuninstall$' folders.
<1> you might like this: http://www.southbaypc.com/SuperCleaner/
<1> it'll help tell you what to delete
<4> lol a vaccum
<4> in
<4> my windows
<2> digidog: OMG, you know what I had today?
<1> completely different topic: PartitionMagic is ****ing awesome
<2> Besides a 14-hour day at work. :(
<4> Do you use it yourself Gareth
<1> SuperCleaner?
<4> yes
<1> a little bit, yeah
<1> it's pretty good for doing a quick search for useless files
<4> Okay its searching.
<4> Scanning for useless
<1> does anyone use any of stardock's products?
<1> ie object desktop suite, etc
<0> i used desktop object years ago.
<1> what'd you think of it?
<1> find something betteR?
<0> unneccessary
<1> yeah, thought so as well
<1> it's pretty
<1> but I'm rather unsure how much unnecessary memory it uses
<4> Nice program it found like 1000 files/folders
<1> yeah, it's not bad at all west
<1> what was the total?
<1> used size, I mean
<4> Well it hasnt finished scanning :P
<1> ah
<4> Does Harddrives take alot of power
<4> I am thinking of buyin another hd
<4> 3rd one
<1> say, any reason I shouldn't be able to see boot.ini with view system folders enabled? I had to remove the hidden attributes manually in dos
<1> well, they take some power - any idea what wattage your power supply supplies?
<1> another thing to consider is how many bays you have (obviously)
<4> leme check
<4> since my side panel is already off lol
<1> I admittedly like to run desktops with the side panel off
<1> maybe I'm just weird
<1> I suppose it'd be better to have a lexan window, but whatever
<4> Its 420W
<4> Raid Max brand I believe
<1> ah, you should be fine then
<1> enough bays for the harddrive though?
<4> yes
<4> it could fit 2 more
<1> well then, there you go
<4> But doesnt the video card hog alot of the power
<1> not so much that one more harddrive would cripple you
<4> lol
<4> You know those lighting tubes for the computer customization
