Hello, I just got my new laptop and I am wondering how to set it up. The details of it are below under my sig. I will be using the Tweakguides "Tweakguide comapanion" to setup my computer. I will be using a-squared, AVG and ad-aware by lavasoft. Should I use Norton antivirus, the free one, from google instead of AVG? I need some other special software reccomendations for my laptop. I just need suggestions. Thanks. I am very exited!:chk:
For security softwares you need to check [link=http://www.hardwareforums.com/windows-xp-security-guide-9738/]this[/link] thread if you are installing windows. For office you can install Openoffice.org for DVD video you can use VLC media player. Its free and region free software. For more free softwares you can check [link=http://www.hardwareforums.com/free-software-thread-2324/]this[/link] thread. Other than that, it all depends on your requirement what you need but try not to install any software which is not required because they all bring ur systems speed down.
