Hi all,
Go to the system Properties --> Advanced Tab -->
click on settings for performance --> Advanced tab -->
then there are program scheduling and Memory Usage.
I hope this is also related with icreasing the speed
depending on our requirement.
Though i'm not much familiar about these terms, as
far as i understand,
1) The program scheduling and memory usage set to
Program will increase the performance of the Maximised
window.
2) The other option will increse the performance of
other services like spooling services, db services
etc.
I'm using Windows XP,SP1 on P4, 2.8GHz, 512 MB Ram.
I have found some difference after making this change.
If anybody has a much more clear idea please explain.
Thanks in advance,
Vetrivel P.
