Signaturen ^^Matt^^ på EFNet har lagt ut en liste med gode tips for den som ønsker å kjøre Windows Whistler/XP Build 2428, men ikke har så mye RAM å ta av.
Han skriver at Whistler spiser mye unødvendig minne, og at triksene han foreslår vil redusere RAM-behovet med mellom 25 og 30 MB.
Det advares herved om at digitoday ikke har testet triksene, og at all eksperimentering skjer på eget ansvar - men har du peiling, kan det være en idé å prøve ut.
1) Gå til Start -> Control Panel -> Performance And Maintenance -> Administrative Tools -> Services
2) Her er de tingene du kan skru av - men sjekk om det er funksjonalitet du trenger før du gjør noe drastisk ;-) Vi viderebringer listen på engelsk:
