And in fact, don't do it, it's a bad idea because RAM access is always faster than any disc access and when you clean your memory everything must be loaded again from the disc...to memory.

Still, in any case the data is read from the drive and transferred into the memory

These updates are typically aimed at addressing security vulnerabilities such as Spectre and Meltdown.
Thats why W7 SP0 is faster than W7 SP1. Unfortunately I don;t know which KB was associated with this - should be easy to find though.]]>This resulted in a performance decrease, especially on older Intel CPUs (pre-2016). Benchmarks showed single-digit slowdowns for newer CPUs and potentially more noticeable slowdowns for older ones.

Did you disable hardware acceleration stuff ?Peacock wrote: ↑17 Apr 2024, 15:04 Update: i tested the newer version of steam and the only thing working: is the main library, download page, friends, popup sidebar and game properties. All of the top options are unclickable and loads into separate windows:
and steam's taskbar doesn't work at all and just loads this:
While the store, community and account pages only shows a black screen

https://mxlinux.org/blog/mx-turns-10/]]>March 24, 2024 is the 10th anniversary of the very first MX release., MX-14, a 32 bit only release that fit on a CD.
Way back in 2014, the mepis community awaited the release of MEPIS 12. Which never came to pass. When MEPIS ceased development, it left a strong community with no distribution to support. Jerry3904 and anticapitalista (of antiX fame) came together to drive forward the first MX release, MX-14, in an effort to continue some of the MEPIS legacy. antiX had also been based on MEPIS at the time. antiX developer BitJam’s live system and build-iso system proved critical to the then expansion of the antiX project, of which MX was an “edition”.
The first release would prove to be, well, ugly! But the community was hooked, despite the change from KDE to Xfce.
The rest is history. Combining and expanding on the MEPIS philosophy of graphical tools for system tasks along with the remarkable antiX live system has proved to be a popular combination for users around the world.
So to all the devs who have ever worked on MX, either now or in the past, to those that have come and gone and gone and come, thank you for a great 10 years! To our users, MX Linux is for you.

I am working on getting a minimal Linux install with Envy on there, theoretically it should fit on a CD.xperceniol_sal wrote: ↑05 Apr 2024, 19:02 Is there a downloadable live version I could put on a DVD?

I heard the ReactOS folks got freeldr working on Secureboot. If it works there then someone could backport it to XP
