Seeking a process management tool (and guidance!)

To further improve Vista functionality on this laptop, I'd like
to remove/suppress everything that isn't necessary.
Unfortunately, I'm not sufficiently skilled to just go through
the list and get the job done.

Is there a source for true expertise on this? My objective is to
generate a list the processes and the status of each, and
compare that to a table of some sort which would derive at least
partly from my usage of the unit.

Thanks!

Hi Henry,

There is a free program called "Process Explorer" that will allow you
to see the processes the way you wanted. I do not know about a
comparison guide for them though.

'Process Explorer for Windows v11.0'
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys...sExplorer.mspx)


You might look at this tutorial for ways to improve Vista's
performamce.

Great stuff, Shawn. I'm very happy with Vista, but am sure that
a little trimming and adjusting will make it even better. The
resources you suggest are perfect...

Thanks!
