  Perfect Disk really does improve performance. DiskKeeper Lite (free and the 
one in the OS) and Norton SpeedDisk (Which proboably uses the one in the OS it 
seems to not make a difference either)
  Thank you,

    I run XP Home on my laptop. I would be interested in hearing how different 
ones have optimized their hard drive.
    Have you formatted to separate files for smoother or quicker operation?
    Adjusted the swapfile? Is that even necessary for the amount of memory in 
new pc's?
    Have you moved the OS footprint from the diskdrive to memory?
    Used Bootvis?
    Any others?
    Thanks
