<0> if i change windows theme to cl***is, will the service stop
<0> for themes
<1> no
<0> it will just use less
<0> ?
<1> gavi15, there is already a tuning option built into xp
<1> open sysdm.cpl go to advanced->performance
<0> been there
<0> best performance
<1> in there you can tell windows to "optimize for performance", which will disable themes and everything else
<1> THIS are the settings which actually influence performance
<1> if you changed them, you already did everything that is important
<1> and for the themes service: i try to explain it to you one last time... try to follow me along:
<1> any process that runs on your windows system needs system resources to run
<1> now the 2 most important resources which you probably deal with are cpu and ram
<0> after a computer is formated, when the computer boots with the xp loading bar goes from back to front a few times, and loads windows, after a while it does like 10-20
<1> the first time xp boots takes longer... and if you don't install crap software or screw around in windows settings, it will actually get faster after a few boots
<1> anyway, back to the service-disabling-topic
<0> i dont have any crap software
<0> office
<0> winrar
<1> now if all a process costs you is cpu and ram, then these two are the things you are trying to free when you end a process
<1> but this is exactly the problem with services:
<1> a service that is doing nothing does NOT cost you this resources
<1> it won't cost any cpu resources cause the process is "sleeping"
<1> and the ram it uses is irrelevant cause of paging
<0> i dont like to see alot of services running
<1> which effectivly means that if you ram would run out windows would automatically unload the unneeded service
<0> i like to see few
<0> :-D
<1> that's idiotic
<0> lol
<1> only cause you "like to see few services" you are crippling your system?
<0> for what i do, i can ***ure u i dont need all these services
<0> i dont use window shelp
<0> that can go
<0> i got what u are saying Ta1oN
<0> im gona find the xp service default
<0> and take ur word of advice
<0> if i dont expirence much of a change
<0> than ill just use butain fluid and set this machine on fire
<0> now another thing, the explorer.exe uses like 20k ram
<2> I recommend using thermite instead. It's prettier.
<0> i dont need pretty for my computer
<0> i need simple
<0> i dont download software that windows can do alone
<0> i dont even use firefox
<0> Ta1oN anyways is there a way to save mem with explorer
<0> i know its all of windows, but it eats mem
<0> can i reduce it somehow
<0> ?
<3> reduce what
<3> oh, the services
<3> ya, you can disable some but only if you know what youre doing
<3> as youre asking i ***ume you dont
<0> Ta1oN??
<3> dcc me a screen shot of your services that are started currently
<0> u dont mind micjordan
<0> k
<3> i'll look over it and see if theres any that you obviously wouldnt need
<0> ok cool
<0> micjordan just note that this is media center
<0> theymight of added some more junk
<3> k...i'm running media center too
<0> k
<0> i loves W*r*z
<0> love*
<0> ok im dcc
<3> youre on dcc?
<1> back... i need to work sometimes, gavi15 ;)
<1> explorer.exe should use around 10mb normally if unaltered
<0> i dunno micjordan has some advice for me, unless u disagree what he said
<0> Ta1oN u also want a screen shot
<1> problem with explorer.exe is thought that it allows shell-extensions, and many, many programs and drivers install those
<3> let me ask you first why youre wanting to do this?
<0> performance
<0> and simply i dont like junk
<3> youre using 151mb out of what i believe is 1gb of ram...youre not exactly running out of resources
<1> heh
<0> nope
<0> half a gig
<3> take a screen shot of the performance tab
<0> k 1 sec
<1> i didn't change any settins on this xp box (except the "optimize for performance" in sysdm.cpl)
<1> and with vs2005, vmware, ie7, outlook, mirc and msn msger running i need ~300mb
<3> this isnt the servies window btw, i was looking for control panel, administrative tools, services....this is a process list
<0> micjordan what exactly do u want me to send and ill send it
<1> btw, disabling some services even degrades performance and/or security
<0> Ta1oN this is what ive realized
<3> ya, thats why you cant just go disabling stuff randomly
<1> best examples are schedule and protected storage
<0> i think it might of been faster when i just did everything from windows
<0> from the settings
<0> i think after i disabled things as u said i crippled my system
<4> Anyone have had problems with installting programs in windows xp, sp2, if the installer has something to do with installshield version 5.10?
<4> I can't install any of those programs, but other programs works fine.
<3> are you getting a specific error?
<4> can't find the path
<4> it's says immediately.
<3> immediately?
<4> when I double click the icon
<4> it's says can't find the path
<3> oh, it says it immediately
<4> yeah
<3> you have admin rights on the machine i ***ume?
<4> yes I sure do
<3> try installing from a different user account? maybe its a profile issue
<4> Yes I did this also
<4> Same error
<4> started in fail-safe mode, same error
<5> http://support.installshield.com/setup.asp
<4> bofh`: been browsing that site, until my eyes bleed
<3> could you have deleted a temp folder?
<3> like c:\temp
<3> or c:\windows\temp or something
<4> nah
<4> not that either
<5> ?? ownership
<6> ownership == http://corn.4t.com/ownership.html
<4> do this on the entire drive?
<4> or what do you mean bofh`
<7> NTFS supports inherit
<5> did I give any indication that that was for you? because it wasn't
<5> your problem is installshield, not ownership. already gave you site with answer to your quesiton. or people to contact if answer isn't in KB
<8> is there a way to control publishing points in windows media services from web pages?
<4> bofh`: chill down bro
<9> morning all
<10> mornin
