Not too bad…

My Windows 2000 desktop system has started feeling slower, lately. I defragged the hard drive, which made a bit of difference. I ran regclean from Microsoft, which usually picks up a few reg entries here and there that are leftover from software I’d installed.

I tried <a href=<a href=”http://www.macecraft.com/php/content.php?lg=en&id=home&did=”>MaceCraft’s</a> registry cleaner, and it found registry entries from software I’d de-installed in 2000! I ran the auto-run feature, and despite a few problems, everything seems much faster now.

I was also able to sort through my computer’s list of startup files and remove a lot of crap that loads in my system tray at boot. Who needs a tray icon to check for keyboard updates?
