Hey Guys,
My first question is: 1) Without having to buy additional RAM, are there things I can do to lower the demand on Ram use to make the system more efficient with less freezing and crashing?
My second question is: 1) what is the recommended sequence of steps to restore the computer after the recovery (i.e., antivirus, java updates, adobe updates, driver updates, and any other necessary updates).
My third question is: 2) what is the recommended method to insure total update of all drivers, applications, software, etc. (is there free software to download all the updates besides the Windows Update provided for by Vista?)
My fourth and final question is 3) my C drive does not have a recovery partition. I want to create a partition for system recovery instead of using recovery discs. Is there a way to create a recovery partition using available free software. Can anyone tell me what all I need and the steps used to create a recovery partition that works from when I reboot the system into a recovery mode?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. You guys are great and very appreciated. :D
I love this site with all the great help here. I have a Vista Home Premium 32 bit on my Toshiba laptop. There is 1 GB of Ram. I have performed a complete system recovery due to very slow performance and frustrating freezing episodes.
