aliz Posted January 7, 2002 Share Posted January 7, 2002 If you you select no sound for "Exit Windows" in Control PanelSound and audio propertiesSounds Windows won't wait for the Exit Windows sound to play and will restart faster :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeza Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 turn off sounds completely to get a noticeable performance boost all those MS wavs were cute and cool back in the 95/98 days but most power users dont wanna be bothered with a sound everytime they do something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironman273 Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 About the startup sound: Windows keeps playing the startup sound while it loads, theoretically only taking away a few CPU cycles from the startup. The exit sound is the last thing Windows does, so it has to finish playing before Windows actually shuts down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariusu Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 disabling sounds gives everyone a performance boost...especialy for the users who still have slow machines... (not me...but i will disable them as well) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
