However, it's really easier to disable services in there. :-/

And I'm not so sure a noob should play around very much with services... :S

Edit: Btw, to have a good virtual memory: if you have a HD you don't use constantly (no programs installed, only back-up or downloaded files. placed in your Secondary IDE, set 100% of your assigned virtual memory there. That will increase your speed a lot, baceuse it doesn't interfere with other disk activities (assuming you use a rather idle HD)


Edit2: It's not really dangerous to play around with msconfig, as long as you keep fingers out the *.INI tabs.

Edit3: For those who don't have an antivirus and want to scan, try http://www.activescan.com
