Hi again espatcho,

Superfetch is a feature of Vista, it remembers your normal activity on the computer; email, surfing the net, playing games, etc. It stores the information in cache in order to retrevive it quickly, when needed. If not working, it will take longer for the OS to get these applications and programs for you.

Edit: We are very lucky our own Brink, on another site, has tried to solve the problem. Read this and let us know.

Hey Richard, you are well I hope. So here's the rundown...While still having problems with vista crashing I went out and bought Windows 7. Well that was good for a little while and now I'm crashing again. Plus I have this coprocessor thing in device manager with no driver. Any ideas?
