| | Vista Profile Vista Ultimate Currently have approx 70 processes running. Would like to setup a user "Gamer" that would be running the bear minimun services & processes. To minimize lag. Any suggestions on where to start? Is it possible? |

It is certainly possible: create a new user and log on then run msconfig.exe from Start/Run and check the startup items and the services, turn off what you recognize and do not need, then test what else you can turn off until Vista still runs :-) Some info at http://speedyvista.com/services.html === All the Best Katy Pluta, MS MVP for Simulators |

| | Re: Vista Profile I would say that you probably neeed to examine your system. I have a fully funstional system and it only runs around 41 processes. If you bought a PC from Dell or HP, then you get an extra 20-25 Processes that are completely worthless in my opinion. Most all of them can be removed. Run msconfig, go to startup and uncheck them, if it actually does break something, you can always restart them "Waz" <Waz@Waz.com> wrote in message news:e1d44pQbHHA.4832@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > Vista Ultimate > > Currently have approx 70 processes running.
