Day 4 – Reduce Windows Visual effects
Windows XP has Visual effects activated by default to give it the appearance you are no doubt familiar with. These effects do have a performance overhead and may contribute to any slowness you are encountering.
The following steps will take you through how to optimise these settings to match your performance requirements.
Click on Control Panel in the Start menu (Ensure you are in Classic View)
Click the System icon
Click the Advanced tab and then click Settings under the performance option
The Visual Effects tab provides an easy way to set your preferences. You can select the 'Adjust for best peformance' or you can customise which features are applied.
Take some time to play around with these settings, you may like the results.
