Windows Xp Pro Server Configs

[puertoblack2003]

hello all i'm just curious the best performance to manage windows server.

for example:

PF Usage: how or whats the best setup depending on ram: Leave it as system manage or custom size??

System Properties => advance => Performance properties:
1: Visual effects which is better?

and should i disable certain programs that it don't need to run? and what they are?

Anything you can share will be appreciated for better performance.

PF should be left to system managed.

Visual effects is only for the GUI. Turning it off will save no memory. The best way to save memory is to go into the services panel and disable the Themes service (not stop, stop AND disable so it won't start up after next reboot).

Anything running that shouldn't be is down to anything you installed yourself.

For better performance overall, add more system RAM.
