    There is some bloatware, but some of them could be boarder line to each individual owner.


    Bloatware:
    • Norton Anti Virus
    • Asus Live Update

    Things you may want to remove or keep depending on what you wana to do:
    • Splendid
    • Net4Switch
    • Instant Fun (this allows the use of the Instant Fun Button on the laptop)
    • Asus ChkMail (keep if you want to use MS outlook)
    • Asus MultiFrame (allows the user to move the Windows and resizes it)

    If you have an XP version of the V1JP you can follow this guide to do a clean install of Windows and Drivers. Click Here

    If you have Vista you can try the same process as this guide, and see if it works.
