I was thinking about all the amazing things that people go thru to get their pc and laptops fixed so they can run smooth. So I came up with the Idea of something like, maybe it'll be nice if people could post their favorite software that did wonders for them.
In my case I like Device Doctor, it will update all your Drivers on your pc or Laptop, Does a very nice Job,but the best thing of it is that it's free. I also have another that I like the most, Magic DVD Copier, Movie DVD Maker, use them every day.
see you guys, hope to here from all of you.

there is/was a post like that but its in the software section ,not the windows nt/2000/ xp section, it was never made a sticky, so it lost in the list somewhere

So in that case it'll be kool to do an update on this, remember always new software comes up with new tweaks and let's say better ways to fix or make things run nicer.

it will take ownership of a file or entire folder with one click, how about that, and much more, check it out.

Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. I know its not Window from Microsoft. But it sure hell make my old Laptop run smoothly. With it I got Firefox browser, Open Office word, spreadsheet and presentation, GIMP for photo editing, Empathy internet messenger, Brasero DVD burner, Rhythmbox for music, Totem movie player and a lot more. That all I need for my day to day work. On top of that its free and no virus.
