Explanation Of Windows Services http://www.beemerworld.com/tips/servicesxp.htm http://www.theeldergeek.com/services_guide.htm *warning OptimizeXP says disabling the task scheduler causes prefetching to not work, which speeds up the opening of common programs. Download TweakUI: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx It's another useful tweaking software made by microsoft. Open it in C:\windows\system32\tweakui.exe |

alexburdette: are you a stoner?
HAHA
"im bad at memorizing"
haha
OptimizeXP: NO this does not work on Windows 98. NEVER disable services from MSCONFIG only use the Services.msc and if you do not know 100% exactly what the service does DO NOT Disable it. The Elder Geeks Guide is not accurate only get information Microsoft's site. Disabling Services improves nothing but boot times. Googel "XP Myths".
jimmyrcom: lmao you're crazy. Apparently you've never seen svhosts.exe using 100% cpu WHICH IT CAN. I've made windows services before and I know I can make a trojan or something that sends out spam emails fairly easily. Microsoft gives piss poor descriptions for their services which I mentioned in services.msc. You seem to know nothing about XP despite your name
OptimizeXP: I realize you do not have much experience with this by your comments about not knowing if this will work in 98. I have been servicing PCs since DOS. Disabling the default Windows Services does nothing but improve boot times. Otherwise prove me wrong with documented reproduceable tests. Google "XP Myths"
jimmyrcom: ". NEVER disable services from MSCONFIG only use the Services.msc" - You
Are you saying msconfig doesn't contain non microsoft services in 98? Disabling unneeded windows services will take away a negligible amount of memory but the point of the video is disabling services to non microsoft services that may be stacking up and can be used to host trojans and spyware, because users can't just ctrl+alt+delete and close / delete services
OptimizeXP: svhosts is a generic host process that can have many services attached to it. You need to use Process Explorer NOT Task Manager to properly see what is going on. If you system is idle some of the services launched by svchosts can appear to be using a lot of CPU but this is misleading because the system is in an idle state or checking for Windows Updates which does not effect system performance.
jimmyrcom: just search svhosts.exe 100% on google and you'll see a bunch of people complaining. I know it's a generic service, but services are not unprone magically to memory leaks or viruses. People should inspect their services and disable unneeded ones to prevent such issues. for the IEXPLORER.EXE virus (all caps) it has a service that protects the virus and recreates it on startup if deleted.
OptimizeXP: Yes and many people have various non default services running and are infected with Spyware and do not understand what they are reading in Task Manager. You must know 100% what a service does before disabling it. Disabling services is not how you clean or prevent infections.
jimmyrcom: I'm not talking about the disabling UNNEEDED default MS services. Disabling those doesn't make too much difference. Obviously you're not too get at computer repair because I've seen hundreds of computers where the person is complaining about it being slow, then I see hundreds of services and startup programs, many pertaining to some spyware / fake spyware removal software they installed. As for MSconfig vs services.msc, read the video's name.
OptimizeXP2: Listen Punk Blocking me doesn't make you right - I have repaired over 5000 systems and have been doing this a lot longer than you. Those "slow" computers are massively infected with malware that needs to be cleaned with the proper removal tools. Msconfig cannot do this. The only thing disabling services and startup items improves is boot times. The video's name is misleading because it should only should say improves boot times.
jimmyrcom: Startup items continue to run after startup and so do non microsoft services. You're insane if you think that just affects boot time. I guess you repaired them by reinstalling the OS or changing the power source lol. For people that need a quick fix disabling services IS a good solution. Uninstalling and removal tools are obviously the ideals, but disabling problems are the best bet and the quick fix for people who don't know much about comps. Programs can have memory leeks and loop issues.
OptimizeXP3: Non-microsoft services should still only be disabled via the services.msc. The majority of startup items are system tray stuff like quicktime, java ect. These have nothing to do with malware infection. I repair systems based on the problem. Reinstall is only necessary due to damaging infections such as Rootkits. PSU have nothing to do with software issues. There is no quick fix for infections, only an idiot would think that. Memory leaks have nothing to do with anything either. Loop issues? WTF?
jimmyrcom: You're a moron that knows nothing about comps that's why I keep blocking you. You think programs that open on startup only affect boot time. You think windows services can't get memory leeks or eat the cpu due to programming errors. You one of those idiots that's all talk and no experience. I'm sure you've done well fixing your moms computer but it's not good enough to convince me.
OptimizeXP4: I know forgotten more about computers than you know. Which Windows Services get memory leaks? Assumption and misinformation does not = fact. I have over 15 years of experience debunking punk kids like you online. Try googling "XP Myths" and get an education. Your video has been reported to YouTube for spreading harmful misinformation. Have a Nice Day.
OptimizeXP2: You are giving inaccurate advice based on information you do not understand. The guide you recommend the "Elder Geek" does not even understand that the Task Scheduler Service is required for Prefetching which makes his whole services guide useless. If you want to help people clean malware then you need to recommend using the proper tools, msconfig is not it.
jimmyrcom: You're right about the task schedueler I'll add that detail to the description, though I can't get it to stop generating pf files by stopping it, msdn says so.
showmechris0: Hey jimmyrcom. Your TOTATLY correct, OptimizeXP is COMPLETLY WRONG.
How could anybody think that disbaling services ONLY improves boot speed? It actual;ly frees up memory and system resources so that your computer can run faster. The eldergeek is an awesome page and it makes me mad whoever says its "incorrect info" and microsoft is better, GOSH!
Anyways, I agree with you:) Thanks for all your awesome videos.
jemgruL: hey man do i have to get an extension for firefox to do this:
on the url i type: g books and it shows me results of boks on google...
on the url i type: y windows xp performane and it shows the results of windows xp performance on youtube
abarut1: jimmy your the best man
How do u know all this stuff?
Could u make an windows movie maker tutorial please?
mattvang13: we hear only your voice...are you god?!
lol good stuff my compy is wayyy faster now
PlatinumKing665: You kinda sound like Ross from Friends... but thanks for the help.
BigMac8000: I gotta get in on this.
Jimmy's right, Optimize is wrong. Why are you wrong Optimize? Because the title is "Make XP Run Faster"... that's the title, that's what this does, period. Why are you being such a whiner about it? If you're so freaking AMAZING use CamStudio and make a video of your almighty tools and stop WHINING. If you can't figure out CamStudio, Jimmy's got a guide for it.
Oh, and finally, Blocking you does make him right. His video = his comments section.
Duneatmydonuts: cool vid... disabling those services can be a tricky little task. Ive shut off more then a few wifi cards in my time by accident xD
but it's not too hard to figure it out and reenable the service, just takes time @_@
lyc69me: NIce one Jimmy nice one son Nice one Jimmy lets have another one.
chadtech2: You have to type services.msc in the run box
I find the only services I really need just to run XP (home) are RPC, Audio, Network Connections, DCOM, Event Log and the various Management ones.
beemerworld is better than TEGeek
chadtech2: Did I mention Workstation? That one, too.
tentjen: I have some programs which start up, when I start up my computer...For example: a program for my photos, if I disable this: what does this mean?->can't I use the program than, or can I still use it like normal?
ElMotilonShow: you could still run it normaly only that you have to start it by yourself like clicking n the shortcut ....
robbieman775: The prformance settings works for vista also.
prbot5: nice thanks lol can change it to windows 2000 lol
mikeyrocks11: lol "ah im bad at memorizing" lol
jlkill3r: thats nice but i have a start up program which has no name, should i delete it?
craig1360: just create a system restore point and delete it so if anything does go wrong u can undo it.
lewisp1992: my conputer doesnt let me go on regedit on the start run butten plz help
jwjustlookin: did you type regedit? if you didn't then thats probably why. if you want to go on it manually, then go to your c:/ drive click windows and scroll down untill you see regedit, thats the program you need.
69XIndividualityX69: On the "System Properties" for "My Computer" on the "Visual Effects" tab,is it suppose to be all uncheck? and is it suppose to be on "Adjust For Best Performance?" Cause I notice yours wasn't.
Bk187O: Now my computer looks like Jimmy's! =)
ddstar: I would NOT recommend turning off Services unless you Absolutely know what you are doing, you can really mess up your comp.
KillerXXX123aw: ...I Don't Really Belive These Things, But Anything To Make A Dream Come True Here It Is:> You have to read this!! you won't believe it!!! don't stop now!! make a wish - - - - - - - . . . . . Nowÿ that you have your wish it will happen! in exclatly 4 days. just copy this and paste it to 4 videos!! only one wish use it wisely and it WILL HAPPEN!!! but if you break the chain your wish will be the opposite.
jimmyrcom: you will die for reading this message in 2 days regardless of whether you forward it to another person.
StevensiTX: Correctly, because otherwise the Windows does not function any longer optimally or booted!
jimmyrcom: you have something severley wrong with your head.
StevensiTX: My last comment went on ddstar (Replay).
StevensiTX: I have other methods to the tunen of the Windows. When first of all one must always deactivate the index and terminal service, otherwise the PC can so correctly slowly will and can be unprotected.
erherhgearh: can i do both of them at once?
jimmyrcom: you can do anything you put your mind to, except articulate what's in your head or what specifically you're talking about.
zxzdimensionzxz1: ujust for best performance and then chang the theme and u be all gud u disk deframent and download cclean and ur pc will be like new
sk8rboyrulz1: ermmm... NvCpl is a vulnerability in windows and oftem turns out to be a virus or trojan. just type it into google. sooo you might wanna disable it.
jimmyrcom: it's nvidia control panel -_-...
Hammer2Nail: NvCpl.dll is safe, it's part of Nvidia. NvCpl.exe is a worm.
userpass123: haha "i have a bad memory" lol dont worry dude me too and thx alot man it helped alot
andrewjax: lol bad memory coudnt u jest coy and past
anthonyo99: When i try to make changes it says that i need to be an administrator but i am.
sumnoob: dose this makes games run faster?
NeCiFiX: Learn how to spell "Does".
uhJenny: ##Id_string1.6844f931_1628_4223_b5cc_5bb94b879762# # i got this as my start up. :/
DanJames15: sod that! I aint wasting my time googling all this crap
KrisAndrew69: thanks alot dude, i've always wanted to get rid of that Security Center on my Tray :)
stefmafia: dude your going to fast next time take your time to explain
vmistry94: you must have a slow mind, i find hes going at the perfect pace. and i can hear aswell. must be a retard
LordOrwell2: i found him extremely slow. so slow i watched two other videos at the same time.
FlyByNiteZ: dude this was awsome. Finally a simple explination with simple guess and check executables. Thanks.
chaosmortal: WOW THIS HELPED
another great vid ~~~ thanks
pimpizzle2: Its awsome that he acctuly cares about us =)
BlGFOOT: whoah dude you're going too fast. Calm down dude ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok next
time take your time to explain idiot moron
pedaphile.
kingfoxIII: There is such thing as a pause button BIGFOOT....
2bl3ss: lol i did it even tho my comp was already top speed. Thanks for the tips
OriginalKrauser: oh no!!!!! i just ruined my computer doing this lol just by the first step and then i just put highlighted all of the things and bam back to normal kinda lol
CKyzOnLy: lol` i don't like people that watch jimmyr's vid's and then ask soo many question's about it` gosh..lol
rideonthetube: Excellent advice- keep up the good work dude. I've implemented so much of your advice dude and don't know what I would do without you---so a BIG THANK YOU
AlfaRomeo20081979: more a "omg, google is so cool and i am dumb"- video, eh?
LordOrwell2: this is dumb. it's like on page 4 or 5 of the windows manual. I learned this before i even owned xp.
vmistry94: no its not, this is just a video and youtube videos dont have good such good quality and they've been resized.
samuraixdude: your spelling is very badddd
BlakeVII: Heres a trivial question.
How do you move the mouse pointer using just the keyboard?
MikeStranger: U have to go to control panel find, helping control opitions, choose mouse, then tip the use the keyboard as mouse or sumtin' then configuration to cursor run faster or slower, then u can use number keyboard i mean the right number keyboard no that above letters, have a fun, xox
nayt5833: could you zoom in a little closer? i think i'm seeing too much
fhuckyourusername: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA agreed
and i think he went a little over board in the services and under board in startup
EdwardDrake: there is another way to free up space too. Go into your recycle Bin properties. the recycle bin automatically sets aside 10% of your harddrive for garbage. check it out. (PCWorld)
Hepsi2007: that is soooooooo stupid.......
shadowriser22: cool video it works for my toshiba lap top as well
Tanquai: LOL "I just go down the list of crap and disable what I do and don't want" And also, for all your other awesome tutorials, *subscribes*
SPACEDMADNESS42: I was disappointed that you went right past the Virtual Memory and didn't even talk about it, that and you didn't explain hard drive defragmention, or the fact that windows has three temp folders that can get emptied.
msconfig was the only helpful thing in the video
CKyzOnLy: he's alright, he does the basic/rough tutorial for user's that might not know as much as if you know keep it to yourself, the new learners should figure it out, by [:watching this video
SPACEDMADNESS42: I was only trying to point out that he could have talked about the most important thing to do when taking care of your windows, defragmenting the hard drive can speed your computer up by about 100 times. Does it really bother you that much that I can point out the top thing to do to make a computer faster.
CKyzOnLy: lol, o, but im sure like beginer user's should already know about that, i think, no trouble boss
warhammer39m: You're damn right, that's the first thing usually that is explained to newbies, and myself I managed to tell newbies how to properly use anti-viruses and anti-spywares themself on their machines. They are calling less and less often so I can do other thing in life lol
ElPhezo: lol "im bad at memorizing" nice vid though
killaaztec: woo thx dude this made my cumputer faster
JediMasterFisher: thanks for this my computer is so faster now. It took less then a second to start up.
XBoSnIaNxX: are u attracted to men? ahahhaah maybe just got done with a couple? ahahahha
supsup666: lol good vid but your voice makes me want to fall asleep
deathrox1337: thats so true, but its relaxing in a drowsy sort of way |)
Washu73: thanks for the good advice.
My computer starts a lot faster now.
ritad426: wow.. really good info
but thats why i switched to Mac :)
elmejormexicano1: thanks. although i found it suprising u dont have a printer
6664774: óóóóó´filha da puta es uma merda karalho!!!!
yovivioparadios: Thanks, this was helpful. How can i set up a shortcut to google such as you did, in the address bar. You just typed g and then your search item.
xDxIxRxExCxTxOxR: look at his other tutorials, he tells ALL of that stuff
CameronLeeCrowhurst: you need firefox... it has a google toolbar lol but the address bar works the same. sometimes for straigtforward words it does "I'm feeling lucky" and goes straight to a website.
for instance if i typed nintendo in the address bar, it would go to the nintendo website.... quite useful
warhammer39m: It does that on windows internet explorer 7 too with the google toolbar installed.
But I agree with you that is a native function of Firefox and I use it everytime, without that crappy msn search engine lol
cerealkiller665: thats great info.
i subscribed!
=]
kurtjackso: the 1st bit is a lil interesting actually
djslik330: That was a great tutorial I used it. It worked for me and didn't take as long as I thought it would. Thanx
darklordlee0: great video, i found it funny too :)
topboywrighty: Or you could not waste your time and just go pub lol
domisdabest: tysm my pc is runnin as good as ever now despite havin so many memory drainin apps up it runs as fast as brand new
Snookysnookims: Very good! My computer is going ALOT fast now! THANK YOU
JComponent: lol, those instructions are funny. if you really need to make those to make your computer run faster, its because.. ibviously you need to buy a better computer.. LOL.. when you have to lower the graphical rendering of windows xp to make it perform fast, you really need a better machine ;)
99RedCSVT: Holy shit. Thank you so much. Vista blows ass. But with your tips, it now runs great. The appearance thing was the big kicker. No more shitty animation shit. Thanks a lot!
AchillesWar: You sound alot like Andy Kaufman. Anyways... thanks for this it helped alot. It helped me hunt down a pesky trojan that was slowing my computer big time. thanks!
WingsofNight64: Thats a good way of makin' the comp run faster, also, along with that run defragmenter located at Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Disk Defragerment, this will make it run even better
TheSchimmi: i know a better way, it's called Switch To Ubuntu
TripLeSh0t: TheSchimmi Thanks for your troll(tried to be funny) comment. Anyway This video has helped me out on fixing that old n' busted dell pc.
TheSchimmi: i just wanted to see how many bad ratings i would get, and yes i have used this, yes it works great, i use my ubuntu computer for internet, and word processing and everything like that and my XP for music, and gaming, cause my ubuntu computer can't handle music and gaming
so yeah this is a great video
itagamer: Im sure this a great tutorial...so thanks!!
but on My Computer when i go to properties...there is no Advance tab only the General and Shortcut tabs are present.
Can anybody help?!?!?
rodocont: cool man!!
thanks for it
panerudepon: Just putting this out there...
DEFRAG YOUR HARD DRIVE. GHOD.
wingscontrol: I defraged, and when it tried to restart, it said sysem could not run!
DEFRAG=PHAIL EVIL EVIL EVIL
dva2408: You can disable all the startup items. Windows runs the essential ones automatically.
chaoahkua: really? last time my dad disabled everything except msn msngr on his computer and then his screen went off and some weird thing came up. I forgot what happened after that, i think he fixed it or something
dva2408: I unchecked everything, including things like CTFMON.exe and NvCpl.exe. They still run, and are essential windows processes... maybe I'm just crazy...
chaoahkua: 너뭐야 이자씩아? 시끄러!
Scott501LR: I Typed MSCONFIG and it say "windows can not find MSCONFIG......Help
gavinlenin: are you using windows 2000? if do then your os doesnt have msconfig
CKyzOnLy: hey jimmy what's the effect of disabiling services? , does that mean a program i disable on service's won't work?
Yunneck: you are good in computers and technology and you are using iTunes? LMAO
insanebubbIe: what you should really say is
you are good with computers and your are running windows? LMAO
jimmyrcom: Linux for the lose you goddamn hippy. All good programmers have both linux and windows. Linux does not earn you the rent asshat, but it is wishful thinking.
askedenseje: i have tryed linux ubuntu and its very cool...
But i switched back to XP so i could keep gain experience .. with help from you :!
Yunneck: i am convicted for Win, The_Only_Right_OS doesnt support programs im using, and emulator is crashable
PokeEXE: Very helpful~ <3
Thank you!
xxEximiousxx: Check out my animations, they rock. Subscribe to get more.
sk8tompivotman: Thanks. You explained that very well.Nice Job!
20goblue20: heres a easier way to make your computer run fast, GET A MAC!
jimmyrcom: what good is a fast computer, if it's not COMPATIBLE WITH ANYTHING. yes, for losers like just listen to music, wank and "safari" the internet, it's perfectly acceptable. Simple minds, simple pleasures.
1imagei1: lol now my computer looks like windows 98 hmm...
richygoku16: damn good video thanks jimmy :)
skatemate13: shit ... I made a shortcut for that 'virus', and put it in the invisible folder and well ... the invisible folder disappeared. o.O
help?
thatoneguyagain: try going to go to a folder. go to tools>folder options>view and click show hidden files. hope that helps
KanoakaVirus: If you have to do all this to make your pc run faster then buy a new one lol, slow pc's are often cused by low ram or delayer type programs or programs running in the background like trojans :P or simple things like v scans but this isnt critisism or anything just advise to those with annoyingly slow pcs
deathrox1337: do u recommend microsoft tune-up utilities?
catapetho: You have a very comforting voice, Jimmy... And your laughter, my God, you must be very sexy. Thank you for being!
oOx666xOo: These settings should only have to be used if you lack hi performance hardware. Also if your print jobs are stuck in que, you can restart the print spooler service.
wall474: thx :D I've done this before but i forgot the
command msconfig. ty
daniel2010s: aAh! danm it i cant do it!...i have no previleghes!lol
warhammer39m: Try with an administrator account. If you are on one, bet it is a virus that's impeding you to manage your own computer. If you are on a computer at work, it may have been customised for a limited privilege account.
imstarvinghungry: naw..thats how my dad set it up so yeah but i do log on his account everyonce in a while and i dont wanna change myself to be a administrador cuz hill get mad...but i know how to do it through command promt ...i just dont wanna change it..like i said But thans though!:] peace!
Dragonart100: THIS IS THE STUPIDEST THING EVER!!! BUT I LOVE MY MOM AND DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES! If you do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hours

eroq2000: thanks for sharing...good stuff..
I was wondering about how to enable a system restore checkpoint that you mention at the end. Do you have a video on that? Thanks man..
e
BlakeVII: A very clear and concise video.
hentajus: DUDE YOU ARE AWESOME! :) and you make it so clear :) JIMMY RULES :D
laphant: you are one seriously ssssmmmmmaaaaarrrrttttt!!!!!!!!!!INDIVIDUAL
TONS OF THANKS TO YOU CHEERS,LAPHANT
jamesthered123: lol i have a windows vister and it works and i have 2 pc one window xp an ovther ones window vister
smilehopelessboi: i've noticed that some of the people who comments trash doesnt even know how to spell their words right.. haha!! LOL!
you're great dude!. dont mind those jerks!
widgeon: The 'Death to Txt-Tlkin Movement' is growing!
As always, another very helpful and useful video. Thank you :-)
ArmenianSOADfreak: Question:
It says 'adjust fopr best apearence' 'adjust for best performance'
OK so what is let windows choose?
will it change to the est performance if u are low on ram or what?
mobilephone2003: XP decides on if your PC is capable, it doesnt learn that it slows apps down, so its good to disable that stuff. It doesnt automatically change anything when low on RAM
ArmenianSOADfreak: thanks but what does it decide this on?
just your specs or like if i open loads and loads of programs will it switch
i think that happened at some older PCs at school lol you click save and everything stops !
CommanderKairu: Would anybody happen to know what lxbc services does? I found that on my list and couldn't find it anywhere. (Just curious)
mobilephone2003: do you have a leximark printer? LX sounds like something to do with that
Xagonix: The Start-Run-MSCONFIG tool is a man's best friend.
sillypooky: Great info, but in a way your saying...I'm not sure what to do just figure it out for yourself?
dahilig07: cool!!! ^_^ you're good at computers ^_^ nice
yotubevid: i don't think my computer would start up without this :)ty jimmy
Dalem50005: Basic, just basic...
You can also make the computer go faster by deleting the system32 folder in C:\WINDOWS\system32
lol
sonicchao: idiot... that will delete the whole system!
sheik1993: ack! no one listen to him!!!!!!!!!! it will fux up your system!!
Laoch111: this is excellent for slow running pcs. the difference is amazing after following this tutorial. well done Jimmy R.
mikeomak: does this improve gameing too?
6395544: Install norton anti-virus and then uninstall it then reboot your system reply what happen next.
gpatxxx: in fact, norton is more dangerous than 100 viruses. use avast or avg.
Silverwindy: if you try what I`ve said, uninstalling norton will crash down your pc and you will reformat your comp.....
steriogram007: ye bro!! im using avast and it is THE shit!! (meaning awesome)
mikeomak: when i hit properties in the begining i dont get the same menu as this. why?
mikeomak: lol nvm i got it, was because if you drag it from the start menu from the desktop it will not bring up the menu, i dunno why im not to good with comps.
spinypine44: you can do all this and also go into bios on start up and in there somewhere there is options for performance or less sound produced by your hard drive and other hardware.
Ro0hm3: Are u retarted? Its better inzoomed so you can see what he is doing..
Noob..
OhYeaToughGuy: Ya but if you can't see the whole view when he clicks off the screen then it doesn't really matter.
Ro0hm3: He don't clicks outside the "View Screen" since he moves his recorder to where he is going to click..
21Panzer21: when u right click properties on my computer , there at the performance choose ADVENCED and at the VIRTUAL MEMORY you will see CHANGE ... just set the amount of space u want ur computer to use like if it is RAM ... good when u don't have money to buy real memory :D.. just do't put too much otherwise u risk ur computer not to run anymore
Zealot124984: The best thing to do for your virtual memory is to set both the minimum and maximum to one good amount, this improves performance so windows doesn't have to keep changing the size of the paging file to accommodate your programs.
Carlosiscool2: hey jimmy thats pretty cool and all but there's a more easy....i read it once in a stuff magazine.....but i can't remember which one it was....but its there your way does work and its easy...but yet again its kinda complicated for some
SignsofDeath: wa you must be administrator to do that
damnell: i dont know if it works for u but i clicked best performance, and my computer got ALOT faster, then i changed back the theme to windows xp, and it was the same, the same speed, and the "best performance" button was still checked :)
Lansola: If you go to: Start and run: services.msc, it tells you what these buttons mean, so you don't have to look them all up on google.
lightlines109: thanks SO much! my computer used to take like 10 minutes to start up because of all this crap i didn't need now it takes 1!!
=D cheers!
Lansola: This is a really clear tutorial. Thanks.
777caleb777: this helps alot mines faster now
bal0uen: THX!! .. my computer is like atleast 3 times faster .. and did only do the first thing =D!!!
alextigerw: thx, really good, my computer real fast now!
yoshimariofun: good vid but when i did adjust for best performance it kinda scared me cause it looked like 98 but thats ok :D 5 stars for me
0runu: what camera program are u using how do i get it?
desertpunkX1: can i reenable the other suff? when im dont rebooting
man20176: jimmyr your hardwork make my job easy. I teach my friends using your video technic. Thank you for sharing it here.
pspman2000: note msconfig is not on a vanilla install of windows 95.
MrSpartan1717: Meh as much as you regestry edit and all that it still comes down to hardware ppl plus if your XP runs like utter shit then its either time to clean up the OS or get a damn new computer cause god ive made xp run on very low hardware with half decent performance out of it.
GhettoSusake: thx so much man my windows xp runs SO FAST NOW i pwn i haveeee go subcribe :D

Eoinmoo4: k ere luk, im 14,.. wa age r u i dunno nd dnt care, go to start/control panel/user accounts nd make an adminastrateive account
(make sure to clik make me an admin. buttn);)
Javiolanti: I've seen 6 year olds type better than you, as for administrator accounts, if your parents have set up administrater account, they might have set up a non-administrator account for you as to limit any chances of screwing up the computer.

zomggrass: Thanks for the tweaks. I also tried the tips on site below to get faster boot time. It worked so far and halved my computer's startup time. I think you should make another video combining information from your video and this site.
snipurl(dot)com/fasterboot
pants189: firefox is based on nescape but safari for windows is ok and quite stable
mazdyabosoraya: Hello..Im system engeener..except tweaks on services if u want to boot your comp faster you can try wiht prefetch folder..its on your sistem drive..system load everything that is in that folder in system memory at start up..and it put it ond the outer tracs which are faster..system automatick configure that prefetch folder but you can do that also on ur own :)
Cypher1zx: YOU are not as system ENGINEER. Maybe you are, but you have the spelling of an infant.
mazdyabosoraya: ma idi bre u picku materinu..znas..ti ces meni da kazes nesto..bas si majmun samo da znas..SEE..I CAN SPELL ON MY OWN LANGUAGE VERY WELL..AND IM MCT NOT ONLY MCSE..SO I TRIED TO HELP..MY POOR ENGLISH IS NOT MY VERY CONCERN..OH YES..ONE MORE THING..FOR ALL GOOD PPL IN THE WORLD BIG HELLO FROM SERBIA..FOR OTHERS I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE SO BIG ASS THAT ALL THE WORLD CAN KISS ME..SO BEAT IT!!!!!!

miltonfine3: Cuando tienes un servicio que no tiene nombre, ni comando, solo su ubicacion, como puedo saber que servicio estoy inhabilitando.
Xw3bN1nJaX6: okay this guy wants to know:
when you have a service that doesnt have a name, or command, only [not sure what this word is], how can he know what service he is disqualifying or disabling.
can anyone help this guy?
Xw3bN1nJaX6: the guy who is speaking spanish.
miltonfine3.
miltonfine3: Hi
The problem is that I dont have startup item, command, just location, check box. How do I know what Im disabling. I woul try to make a video with camstudio showing this problem.
inspiron24user: "When you have a service that does not have name, nor commando, single its location, like I can know that service I am disqualifying."

honeycomb38: This is a great way to screw up a computer at work. Just disable and enable at random. Nothing will work right. Watch your boss turn beat red, sweat, begin to curse...etc...Say thanks for the fifteen-cent raise by throwing a wrench into the works today.
jimmyrcom: I don't have a boss. If you were smart enough to understand the vid you wouldn't need one either.
truelementsgirl: thats pretty cool...but im afraid to mess up this computer
CityBluesman: Hi Jimmy , Since Looking At Your Tutorials Ive Learned A Lot , Just Want To Say Thank You Very Mutch

xjustxxl: what do you mean by 'giugal' ? new search engine ?:)
Yusmanis: Ok in my Msconfig Services i have everything checked right but alot say stopped and some say running do i uncheck the stopped ones or don't I.
jimmyrcom: You can disable any non microsoft . Just google the service name before disabling it to see what it is. You probably don't want to disable your wireless card, laptop touch pad, etc.
lovebugzy26: i have a problem the settings of my computer properties has change i dont know there is just two option i see the general and shortcut settings in the properties.help........

michaelcat41: no it legal just becuas eits usefull dont make it illegal btw dude they put that on there that way if the owner of the pc wanted to they could gowd your full of it lol
Pale091: No michaelcat41 for some reason the reply didn't work, i was talking to the little kid that was asking this guy to teach him how to hack..
millsto: never knew about that ctrl f thing, knew the rest tho and well worth doing, ended up turning half the stuff off bcuz most its useless for me
endofhope2: yeaah, thank you!! this helped me really much
gutaga: I knew all of this.. well anyway still good information =P
jimmyrcom: there's no risk if you don't disable microsoft services.
StephanSmithOnline: Thank you so much for this video.
Five stars easily.
bh13DE: I like the performance part, thanks! If you disable some Microsoft services though, your computer will act funny.
BruteCommando: Or just buy a fast as hell pc, when i boot up i see the windows logo for 2 seconds then i'm on the desktop :P
godverdegodverdomme: "Or just buy a fast as hell pc, when i boot up i see the windows logo for 2 seconds then i'm on the desktop :P"
Not all of us can afford a 3000-5000 dollar computer.
michaelcat41: i dont think its any big deal 3 laptops 2 desk tops idk my grandparents just arient poor lol
UnrivaledShogun: I knew most of it, I just didnt think about searching for information on each of the windows xp service. Thanks for the info, anyway.
daturbantor: even though i knew all this, thanks anyways
herkulesdraku: very useful video, thank you for uploading!!!
djtripp22: Hey nice work man, Very well done!
Quajaboy: the first tweak adjust for best performance is basic and in most guides or books
almost every other tweak you are simply pointing to google, and really the only people who would actually benefit from disabling the services are the geeks who probably already doing this themselves
mediocre at best video, didnt learn a thing
strictstrictstrict: Nice vid for the newbs a better way to boost ur comp..... well its a big secret .... Microsoft would hunt me down and kill me if i let it out!
1stholiday: very nice .. very helpful, thatnks much!
vmistry94: my computers much faster faster now lol

xXwhygodwhyXx: i run faster thanks I just want to found out how to download faster
Disturbed116: Most people know how to do that. good for noobs tho
monkeybonestudios: Make your computer faster??
Watch it here /watch?v=y1PkQt0f21Q&feature=bz303
JohnG0794: This is like modding any consoles to hack something. Like Hard Modding. There's a chance you can break or crash your computer right?
jimmyrcom: this is not modding, it's safe as long as you don't disable microsoft services, at least without knowing what they do
JohnG0794: oh cool thanks, that's what my fellow forum friends told me, it's probly about the IE configuring or was it firefox. nvm thanks anyways
GodSaveThePres: damn thanks a ton dude!! that was like having my computer quit taking drugs and straighten its shit up you kno? 6/5
Lesrevesdhiver: Seems like a lot, especially if one was actually going to google all of those services.
This gives a good idea of where to start, it is like a crash course of sorts.
justXpand20: i just reformat my computer,can u help to put back on my local area network connection? and i dont know how to put a net icon on my taskbar
tnx a lot
burn246: you right click the taskbar and click on properties, then on 'notification area' and check the check box thats next to the word 'network' thats under 'system icons'. hope it helped you =]
ra2yuri4: Shit dude this is nice and all but whats so hard about buying a $30 DDR/SDRAM RAM?
Unless your very, VVVery!!!!!!!...poor, then you should use this method and turn your computer into a fckin zombie!
jimmyrcom: wtf are you talking about, with a lot of ram or very little you should cleanup the startup shit. It's pointless having your computer work harder just to make things minimally more visual.
ra2yuri4: well you got me there. But screw all of this windows crap. I'm more of a linux fan anyway.
I'm Also thinking more dell and mac wise. Just go buy a mac tower for like 55k with 35gb ram *expensive as shit*. The only thing I could say thats good about it is... It will never lag. I can't imagin it lagging. You can run a shitload of stuff in the taskbar. Let alone about 20 videos at once :D!
theparoxysm1984: With a crappy an inefficient processor.
Lag isn't based on virtual memory alone.
yellerbelly123456: thank you, lol this helped me for Gmod 10 ^^
jsosa26: hey jimmy where r u from? can u fix my cpu???
jsosa26: hey jimmy, thats not very nice,i ask u cause i dont know sh1t bout cpu's, all u gotta say is no, hojala el ke se muera sea tu Familia
oAvRokilleral: "im bad at memorising" lol.
nice vid man.
helped me alot.
cheers
jason27131: check it out to actually optimize your pc, using more than just 1 tool. lot more indepth.
ghitaciprian: i hate it when i have to ddo that ! it's a horrible graphic 4 windows & it sucks ! that's why i have 4 GB RAM inside !
UltraHiResolution: its not the ram
its the cpu and hdd together that works along with ram
4 gb for xp even if 64 bit is overkill !
farodemon: Jimmyrcrom,
Please Resond i have The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion for PC and its constintly crashing i have 448 mb of RAM and the minimum requirment is 512 but i hear different things some people say it dosent matter how much RAM you have some people say i need a new driver what do i do?
jimmyrcom: updated directX and your video card drivers. you have 512 ram but the video card reserves 64mb of it. you meet minimum requirements
Cruptlord: he sounds like he gonna cry like y
dakotaostler250: TY IT REALLY HELPED
CHEERS!!
XxjonhcynaxX: you have the best video on youtube!
hotwheelz: I went to performance options under "my computer" and i dont see those options..what i see on my computer under Performance Options is"Adjust for best performance of "Programs" or "System Cache"..should i mess with these settings?Everything is set to Programs right now.
adeelisnoones: 18gb !!!!! he meant how much ram u have installed in your pc, it does not mean that how much ram is there in the shop for buying
bedeckhama: yeah no mobo can support that for personal computer
masterquest91: I'm in a wireless network. Will disabling "server" in msconfig affect me at all?
RichardFDisk: > Start
> Run
> Services.msc
this is the better place to disable services from, because there you can set up to three different settings
1> automatic
2> manual
3> disabled
and most have at least two or three sentence descriptions and some have whole paragraph descriptions for the service, and sometimes setting to manual is good enough to prevent the service from running.
cheers

oOPhantomX11Oo: Wow, this was very useful. Thanks! -.^' 5*****
iPhenomX: Thanks, Jimmy. Extremely appreciated.
whoastepback: I have like 224!! Lol be happy
roccosperanza: Use autoruns it makes it a lot faster.
thewestof1979: Thanks for the your tutorial videos, Jimmy. FYI, there is this program from uniblue that scans processes and services for you without the hassle of going through google search.
Just type in process scan in google.
judahbabuda: then you shouldn't be watching these... you think?
hugociss: actually no matter how much ram u have, xp will still lag on some occasions espiecelly when a program is currupted, or interreupted, it may start a task that will never end, on such occasions, u will be forced to terminate it, so actually, this tutorial can help anyone, even if they have like 4 gb of ram
hugociss: u should really do some real learning
Dyaytrumpet1995: A my computer is way faster more like a Vista.
hugociss: thanks for this tutorial, but i guess i viewed it too late, just "upgraded" to vista, now i regret and may use this tutorial to speed up my trusty old macbook up.
DaeadmanUnleashed: If you want to make your Windows XP machine run faster: Go to My Computer/ C: Drive/ WINDOWS/ and delete the system32 folder. LOL
KellyAdkins7890: you have a great pothead voice =]. not an insult
