never tried to do it before. i wouldn't have any idea right off hand.

You can write a batch file and then add it to the task scheduler to have it clear the prefetch at regular intervals. That's what I do and it works well. Just use the following command:

del C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch\*.* /Q

It's just a convenient way to get rid of the junk, and faster than doing it manually.

Thanks, I'll give it a try and see how it works out.
