Vista is known to use a huge amount of memory, and so a memory happy OS, and a memory hungry game (BF2), do not work well together.

In XP, I had hardware profiles set up, so in my "Gaming" user account, nearly every service was disabled, for that user.

By doing this in Vista i am sure i will be able to significantly cut the memory usage of Vista, but have heard that Microsoft have taken out the use of Hardware Profiles in Vista......

Is there any other way i can stop services FOR ONE ACCOUNT ONLY!?

Thanks in advance... Titch2349

SpeedswitchXP is a small applet that sits in the system tray and allows dynamic switching of the frequencies of mobile Intel and mobile AMD CPUs under Windows XP. During the development of Windows XP, Microsoft decided to integrate dynamic frequency switching into the operating system itself.

okay so i was cleaning out my music folder in preparation to back it up before i upgrade to vista and I clicked on properties to find out how many files i had and it was significantly higher than i expected. No big deal. I finished cleaning out the folder and it was still too high. So I went into the subfolders (one for each artist) and on the first subfolder I had 15 files in 3 folders, the thing is, I wouldn't have 15 files in those folders even if i counted the folders themselves as files. So does anyone know why the properties section keeps overcounting, I have my folders set to show hidden files so I don't think its that.
