The attached file is a registry tweak file I put together that I run on ALL computers I work on. I have pasted all the registry information in this thread. If you want to install it, just download the attached .reg file and run it, then reboot. I have combined registry tweaks that I found from all over the internet. And this combination seems to work best for me. Everyone's needs may be different though.
