Well I think that all these performace tune ups if I may call them as performance tune ups will not speed up your computer that fast. I was reading similar article and it was not speed up my windows but you could never know what exactly can be and why certain things happen. So by excluding some of the devices it will speed your start up but not also you overall work so it depands which performance you are tuning up. Also antivirus software slows down computer but it is needed for security reasons and so on. The biggest feature you could do and it will make you start up certainly faster is to close all unneeded programs that start automatically with windows this endangers yours system and slows down uploading process of your windwos.Good luck with tuning.

Maybe this will cut off 5 seconds of bootup time and take off about 10 mb of RAM usage, but this will in no way boost performance unless you're running a really outdated system.

I've tried it and I don't think it speed up my computer, I think it depends of what spec of computer you're using. for example if your computer RAM is only 512mb, and running Windows Xp - it will be really usefull, but if your computer RAM is 2Gb, and running XP or Vista - it will be useless.that's what I can say....CMIIMW

if your computer RAM is only 512mb, and running Windows Xp - it will be really usefull, but if your computer RAM is 2Gb, and running XP or Vista - it will be useless.

More like if your computer has 128mb. 512mb is plenty and doing this will make no difference.
