hello people,
first, to all the fruity dudes round here, yeah I know, Mac is better. But actually, I am not at point where I should get one. I don't have some many project and I still don't have a clear profesionnal perspective anyway.
So I stick with the PC. On the "fatter" projects, Cubase can suck more that 1,5giga of RAM and the computer just can't follow.
I know getting it away from any network can help but I just can't as it is the only computer I own.
I try to get off some CPU load for example by changing the modern Win XP theme back to the 2000 theme. I will also buy a graphic card and turn off the on-board one. The 2 harddrives also help but it is not enough sometimes.
Do you have any other tips to "enlight" WIN XP ?
Some processes that I could delete or disable ?
"Optimization" of parameters, f.e. virtual memory (often a "debate"), application priority if there is so,...
Or I should just get 2 other gigas ram ?
I am ready to "re-compilate" an install cd of windows XP if I can find enough processes-programs-stuff-hidden-shits-from-Microsoft to erase from the installation cd. With this :
