Boosting Vista

by Baysil Steinberg

Vista is supposed to be the ultimate operating system, but sometimes you have a problem of too many programs and not enough resources available. Vista Aero is a huge resource magnet and could be slowing you down.

Vista Aero will literally eat up your available resources and leave you with not much left at all. Its a spectacular group of features which include helpful animations, transparent menu bars, visual effects and thumbnail previews.

Aero is setup as the default theme for Vista. Disabling it frees up allot of resources and you should notice a difference in the system after you disable it. You will still have the Vista look, but not the resource hogging effects.

One thing that you will not have will be the 3-D flip option for the desktop, so if you can live without that go ahead and disable Aero to bring your system back up to speed. If you like the 3-D flip option then leave it as is to continue as you were.
