Windows XP Speed Tips – Turn off Windows Visual Cosmetics

Windows XP looks very appealing but displaying all the visual
items can waste system resources. To turn off the visual themes
and all:

Click the Start button
Select Control Panel
Double-click the System icon
Click the Advanced tab
In the Performance box click Settings, click Custom
Leave only the following checked:
“Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop “
Finally, click Apply and OK
If you want a little of Windows XP’s default look without all the bells and whistles, keep the following checked
“Use visual styles on windows and buttons “
You may also want to disable your wallpapers and other
themes to free up some system resources.
