Sorry, those 'general' tips know I already. I don't have unncessary
applications installed by me, and removing temp folder or temporary
internet files are not really helpful. System restore data is
intentionally kept in case some error occurs. I'd rather want some
tips like removing uncessary component of Windows Vista completely
from the hard disk, or physically removing some files that are
unncessary., for example the update cache that could be found at
Windows\SoftwareDistribution.
