Disable excess Windows Services that Auto-Launch at Startup

Just like Windows XP, Vista ships with all kinds of services enabled that load at startup and may never be used by most users.
To see what loads at startup and disable the ones you likely won’t be needing (they can always be started manually later)

1) Click Start then Control Panel 2) Select Administrative Tools 3) Choose System Configuration 4) Click the Services Tab > You may want to deselect

> Offline Files (unless you’re using Offline File Sync)
> Tablet PC Input Service (unless you have a tablet PC)
> Terminal Services
> Windows Search (If you have already disabled indexing)
> Fax (unless you’re using a fax modem)
