Anyone got a XP / SERVER 2K3 "services" comparison guide?

I like the fact that 2K3 is SLIMMED down but, I *need* the compatibility of XP.

In short, I'd like to uninstall and/or stop services from running in XP that don't run in 2K3. Anybody got a list? I don't have time to compare both XP and 2K3 on my own.

Thanks a bunch.

There are different default settings for the services in Win2k3 depending on the server edition (Standard, Enterprise,Datacenter, Web), but maybe this link can provide the information you want:

Though I would probably go for service guide made for WinXP like this one:

Awesome advice.

Looks like I'll be busy this weekend but, nonetheless, it sure seems informative.

I appreciate it!
