Hey everyone, I updated some of the links to newer stuff, added some newer links, and fixed the broken old ones.

If anyone sees anything that would fit well in this sticky, please post it so it can be added! Thanks.

On a lot of systems nowadays people are using upwards of 512MB or RAM, if you are there’s a desirable option that can now be turned off to access more overall system performance.
This is Virtual memory, you see when Windows runs out of RAM it is forced to use Virtual memory which utilises your Hardrive’s temporary file as RAM, this is much slower than RAM and is not desirable. If you have 512MB of RAM or over then Virtual Memory can be disabled and system speed increases will result.

Really?? I thought disabling the paging file was a bad thing.
