Windows 8
Honemi:
Yeah. I guess you're going have to skip Windows 8. I'm pretty sure Microsoft actually removed the Aero code instead of simply burying it. Sorry I can't be of more help for this issue. Maybe 8.2 will return this feature if people continue to make a stink about it.

How's windows 8 update? On my desktop it's ok but I'm not sure if it's taking too much space for the updates. Win7 is horrible on my laptop, took 8GB for updates plus it slows down. So I format it then deep freeze, no more updates. A bit faster now, should I leave it like that?

Maintain it better.

Clean out the case.
Turn off programs/services you don't need from starting up automatically/at start-up.
Defrag.
Run a (deep) virus scan.
???
Profit?
It could also be your RAM.
One of my, tech challenged, friends tried running Win7 on 3GB of RAM.
-I know it SAYS you only need 1 (or 2) but I've never seen a machine run it properly without at least 3GB.
It...didn't work so well.

Confirmed: 3GB is sufficient.
