    What programs should I remove? I remember reading on this board that some of the pre-installed drivers are likely to crash the system, especially for Steam. Unfortunately, I cannot find the topic anymore... So what drivers/programs should I remove or upgrade to make sure my computer doesnt have these issues? Thanks!

    Reformat and completely reinstall Windows...then one by one install the drivers...the only sure way ;)

    I know that the Creative software gives A LOT of people problems and is generally considered bad and useless...so that should be removed first and foremost...I think everything else should be ok...should be...
