Vista System Tweaks?

[ShaneR]

For XP, there were various "tutorials" that led you through each system process and advised if you could safely shut it down to free up some resources.

Anything like this exist for Vista yet?

Thanks

Where can these XP tutorials be found?

There are a couple books in stores that include a couple minor tweaking options. If you head down to your local bookstore.. I myself read a couple registry tweaks, interesting options, and little speed-up system tips that would probably help you out.

In terms of a detailed performance-enhancing based vista tweak guide on the internet? ... no not yet.

Thanks

Kinda figured it was a little to early for Vista.

For the XP guides, I really can't remember. There was one site in particular that was quite popular...If I remember, I'll post it.

There is another toy out there called Tweak VI. Some of you might remember this from the previous Windows (like XP's Powertoy Tweak UI). There is a freeware version of it that you can look it up on google. There is also a "pro" version where you have to pay, I'm not sure how much. But yea give this powertoy a try.

i would personally recommend against any tweaking to vista at the moment:

1. it is new, the whole registry has been changed, the whole engine works around it
2. vista, in its stock form at the moment, is doing better than a "tweaked" xp
3. ...

cheers ...

I used Tweak VI for Vista and it is so much better than going thru a thousand user menus to get settings done.

I haven't tried this, so use at your own risk:

this is scary - most of the tweaks mentioned for vista are very much being based from previous XP tweak "recommendations"

vista is still evolving, who knows what the inside is still doing, especially with services and registry

i m one of those who just love to hack/tweak my system, but until i know a bit more about vista, i would hold off in this area

but hey, any infos are welcome for digest

cheers ...
