Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Service Configurations


Recommended Posts

This is what the people here are going to tell you so I'm going to save them the trouble of typing:

"Vista, unlike XP, does not improve performance by turning off services. Vista's services are turned on for a reason. Leave them alone or you risk having security issues."

I always run a backup before trying anything realated to tweaking default settings on any Windows OS...so really, your point is moot.

The service configurations found on Black Viper's website are pretty accurate, I've used them both for Windows XP and Windows Vista and depending on how far you wish to scale your services back it does make quite a bit of difference; if it weren't for his "minimal" configuration for Windows XP I never would have gotten it to run smoothly on a Pentium II 333MHz CPU with 64MB of RAM.
