ps try running spi tweaker and watching the memory usage, it will be much higher  manual is more efficent, cuts more time and takes likes time
Forgot to add to the video, once you close all windows at the end of the wazza wait for your HDD light to stop blinking then start. Sorry!

So you basically wan to see the lowest memory usage in SPI after waza is done right or do you want to be around 250kb?

According to my understanding, you need to bring available memory and system cache as close to as possible before you start your superpi run....

Yes for the long run you want them as close as possible, but getting the memory usage wayyyy down of all the programs will help bring your first iteration lower giving you a nice little boost on final score.

Yeah I always wondered why my initial values were poor...
Looking at my HWBot results, it is always I have worse initial value but better looptimes in my area of pi efficiency.
Not saying that is good or bad, as I am never near the top dogs anyway...

Want to applaud this video once more. Got it down now, and I like manually moving files. Feels like I'm doing something.
Just realized my stripped XP even has themes stripped.....gonna have to reinstall with a different version and get SP3.
Any problem using quick launch bar? I don't like using any desktop icons, but I love using the quick launch bar when benching.
Edit: LOVE the manual method over the spitweaker. Distinctly reproducable benefits.
