Answer 1

Windows stores the memory swap in a file pagefile.sys. This memory is useful in particular when your memory RAM is saturated. The file can then be rather bulky and it is then possible, if you wish it, to empty the file swap by leaving Windows.

To empty the file of memory swap to the closing of Windows:

1. Click Start menu and choose Run, then type regedit and click on OK.
2. In the window regedit which opens, unroll the branch: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\ Memory Management
3. Double-click on the ClearPageFileAtShutdown key and allot value 1 to this key.
4. Close and start Windows again

Answer 2

2 things that come to mind right off
1 Aspire if memory serves me correct comes with there version of Vista rather than the retail version that some of the others furnish there customers. This will enable you to simply put the Operating System Disc in and erase and Install the operating system again and it will trash all the junk and places you shouldn't have went.
2nd Aspire is not one of the top rated computers out there and in some cases have shown to be problematic as was Gateway a while back.
Cheapest isn't always a bargin when you can't keep them running.
