[QUOTE="gperkinson, post: 594712, member: 83961"] Hi Tony, Thanks for the note - I really appreciate it. I cannot believe how much quieter my hard disk is now that Superfetch is off!! I used to get high disk activity which included disk activity on the 1TB USB drive I have connected which interupted playback - is that the sort of thing you were experiancing?? Do you (or anyone else) know of any downsides to turning off Superfetch? A lot of forums with "experts" are saying that it's a good thing by utilising unused RAM and caching programs, however how is this useful with and HTPC which runs MediaPortal most of the time? Another quick question - once it is turned off, is there anything else that should be looked at e.g. cleaning out files it has created?? Thanks again for your comments - much appreciated. Regards Graham [/QUOTE]
