Make sure magic disk isnt loading at startup and it shouldnt matter. You would only see a difference if it was running in the background by loading at boot.

Go to task manager and kill the processes that are taking up memory. keep in mind ,the program (s) will terminate if you kill these processses.

PRESS CTRL+ALT+DEL and go to task manager to acces there.

Open msconfig and go to the startup tab and untick magic disc so it doesnt start up at launch. And to save even more ram un-install vista and put on xp or somethng..
