Hi All

In trying to get the most out of my computer while running FS9, I have been tweaking here and their. However, I have notice that in Windows Task Manager, I have between 40 and 45 procceses running in the back ground. Is this normal? does this not slow my machine? can I thin the list out and if so? what is essential for XP opperation?

Thanks

Matt

Or you could get FSAutoStart. Great program, free, and will even restart the services you select to stop. Gives a descrip window of each service and what you should do. PLUS, you can use this little program for ANY game you have.

See the thread below on the program and how to set it up. You won't be sorry.
