you tryed tweekxp?

i just download the trial for Tweak-XP Pro v4 theres a auto tweak section in there for services and visual effect go on to that a go tweak to THE MAX on both, note this will require a restart and something you want to do wont work as most of the system services are disabled.

you will need to go thru them and enable what you need to use. easy as that lol

easy but annoying

are u sure that its gonna optimize? some of those programs do more to ur computer to slow it down, than to speed it up..

I used Blackvipers Guide to disable services on the computer, was running nearly 50, now dow to 20-24ish depending with windows/games open. Much faster. Reported that you could get down to nearly 10 is possible, I got some on still that re recommened to disable but I use the features.

As for what you might want to consider doing is besides that checking out http://www.tweakguides.com/XPTC.html I havn't done anything in the tweak guide yet, but I'm looking forward to doing it as soon as I can, possibly tonight I'll play with it some more after I finish donig things on my computers and wraping gifts.
