The fellas in the video saw gains from 82% to just under 100%, though I only saw boosts of around five percent, so your mileage may vary. This project should only take about three minutes and will hopefully leave you with impressive results.

1. Disable Indexing Services

Indexing Services is a small little program that uses large amounts of RAM and can often make a computer endlessly loud and noisy. If you don?t use the search feature on your computer often, this system service is completely unnecessary.

To disable do the following:
? Go to Start
? Click Settings
? Click Control Panel
? Double-click Add/Remove Programs
? Click the Add/Remove Window Components
? Uncheck the Indexing services
? Click Next

2. Optimise Display Settings

Windows XP can look sexy but displaying all the visual items can waste system resources.

To optimise:
? Go to Start
? Click Settings
? Click Control Panel
? Click System
? Click Advanced tab
? In the Performance tab click Settings
? Leave only the following ticked:
? Show shadows under menus
? Show shadows under mouse pointer
? Show translucent selection rectangle
? Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop
? Use visual styles on windows and buttons

3. Speedup Folder Browsing

If you notice every time you open my computer to browse folders that there is a slight delay. This is because Windows XP automatically searches for network files and printers everytime you open Windows Explorer.

To fix this and to increase browsing significantly:
? Open My Computer
? Click on Tools menu
? Click on Folder Options
? Click on the View tab.
? Uncheck the Automatically search for network folders and printers check box
? Click Apply
? Click Ok
? Reboot your computer
