| Settings that improve the visual
appearance of the Windows XP
interface can slow down performance.
You can fine-tune the settings in
Windows XP Professional to improve
your computer’s speed. Although
visually it may not look as good,
you’ll see a difference in
performance immediately. And it
won’t change how your computer
functions. To make this change you
may need to be logged on as an
Administrator. Also, applying these
settings may change your current
desktop theme. To change
the visual settings in Windows XP:
- On the Start menu,
right-click My Computer
and click Properties.
- In the System
Properties dialog box,
click the Advanced
tab. In the Performance
area, click Settings.
- In the Performance
Options dialog box, on
the Visual Effects
tab, you can either click the
Custom radio
button, and then select
which user interface
(UI) features to disable to
improve performance. Or, if you
click the Adjust for
best performance radio
button, all of the UI features
will be disabled. Choose the
option that works best for you.
- Click Apply.
