Hi, Good guy's!. I recently upgraded my HP. Pavilion ze5580us Lappy's Memory from 512 MB. to 1 GB. I get slightly faster boot-up times, and the system seems to be (slightly Peppier and Faster). I notice it, but it's hard to describe.....
anyway, I'm a hardcore Pessimist that has Norton System Works 2004 installed on my Lappy. The only utility that really interests me is "Norton Windows Doctor) (a Registry Cleaner), which i run every day, (since it seems like every time i delete ANYTHING, there are References and File Asociations left behind in the Registry that are NOT deleted, and can bite you in tha @ss.
So!!!, the day my Memory arrived by UPS. I ran Norton Win Doctor as usual...
(clean scan - no problems). Then i upgraded my Memory to 1 GB. and ran Norton Win Doctor again. (remember, i'm a Pessimist). LO AND BEHOLD the scan came up with no less than 109 problems!!!. (they were all missing Shortcuts, Missing File Associations , and Missing Active-X entries OF ALL THE PROGRAMS THAT I HAD DOWNLOADED, TRIED, PLAYED WITH, AND DELETED OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS)!!!.
WOW, Seems like either Windows XP., or Norton System Works, is SWEEPING DIRT UNDER THE CARPET). So, after i upgraded to 1 GB. of memory, after i booted up, stuff got RELOCATED in memory, and the "carefully hidden problems" showed up!!!...
Hey, no problem. Norton Win Doctor fixed all the problems on the first try!.
but i wonder, I had explicitely Uninstalled all of those programs, and was very carefull to clean up the registry from all the stuff left behind.....
Can anyone recomend a BETTER Registry Cleaner (complete with BIGGER BICEPS, AND LOT'S OF UNDERARM HAIR). i know Windows SUCKS, and so does NORTON SYSTEM WORKS.....
Regards.....
