    Windows 7 How can i downgrade my win7 64 bit to 32 bit?

    Why do you want to downgrade? the 64bit variety has better performance, will accept more memory, and is more stable. If there is a particular program you want to use, there is usually a compatibility fix so you can do that.

    Windows 7 Set time frame for windows system downloads

    The problem I'm talking about is after eliminating all other programs. It is the process that specifically show as "System Resources", or "Window Update", or "Svcehst.exe" that I'm trying to control. I have managed to control the other things to my satisfaction.
