ChevronX Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Is there a tool to reset default windows xp services? To like automatic etc again. I was just wondering if it were possible, it would save alot of time, then from going through each one trying to restore them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparda Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 dude... honestly, how many services you need to disable? you probably need 90% of those services up running to have windows stable and functioning... nah... there only enabled because microsoft wants it to be as 'help full' as possible. I tend to disable allot of them, infect I have an old screen shot of what services I have enabled... There is it: My mind hasn't changed much about any thing on that list since I last used windows. The only comments I have to make about it are that: 1. I must have been running Vmware when I took the shot (hence the VMware NAT service). 2. You only need the nVidia display driver running initially for 3D acceleration to work, after it's finished 'doing it's work' you can kill it. 3. The themes service is only needed if you want the better looking window borders. 4. You only need the print spooler service if you actually want to print some thing, it doesn't need to be running unless you want to use a printer.
