    Changing startup services


    good People,

    This is the most complete list of settings for services that I've found.

    This list was also generated by a true professional, MSCE, MVP, and author.

    For EverydayUser, I recommend to just leave well-enough alone and change nothing. For the tinkerer and those who want to get the highest possible performance, take a look at this url:

    No offence meant Karl but IMO, Blackviper is a much better site for at least 2 reasons. It categorizes tweaks as "Safe", "Tweaked" and "Barebones" apart from Default. This is something even a layman can grasp. On the page you have linked, the author has simply given a "possible startup mode list" without enlightening us how he arrived at it. E.g. he has disabled all bluetooth startup services which a user may be using extensively.

    Secondly, Blackviper links every service in the list to a wiki description so the user can make an informed decision on what mode to use.

    Of course, if you believe that win7 requires no tweaking, then both sites are useless for you.
