How much does disabling "Services" actually help s

Recommended Posts

I just came across this tweak of putting "services" to MAUNUAL or Disabling them all together. The first time I installed W2K I put all but 4 of them to "manual" and started getting errors. I would like to try any tweak that will inhance performance and free up resources; however, since I am new at W2K I am not sure IF this "services" tweak is a BIG improvement or neglidgable.

It might... I know that after disabling some of the services on my machine here at home, it could have become abit more unstable in some very heinous situations compared to my machine at work. (I have since turned back on some of the services dealing with the hard drive, parity check, write buffering and what not after one of my SCSIs came very close to dying.. 8) )

I also found it creates some instability and gives little or no improvement. Better to disable management counters with program exctrlst_setup.exe and try the memory tips from Ars Technica site.
