Title: Vista & Superfetch (Shut it down)
Post by: SeVeReD on July 21, 2008, 12:52:57 am
I haven't tweaked Vista much ... ( i think on my next install I might try to shut down as many services as possible for fun...), but, I did try shutting down Superfetch in Vista.  It seems to have greatly cut down on HDD activity.  System is sounding very good right now... but it has been, so i dunno.  But I'm amazed at how the HDD activity light is not blinking away like it use to.

I myself have tweaked Vista to (be) dead. I am using those tweaks for a month now without problem.
I saved (screen copies) all the settings I changed for you out there. But I still must post them. Superfetch indeed is one of them.

Look forward to that Peter. I would still like to lower my latency figures without glitches, though I have been happily enjoying the system for some time now.

Btw Chris, I found that the Latency Checker runs a service itself ... (even when you didn't start the program). :whistle:
