Does anyone know any cool tweaks for win2k? Anything really, GUI/Optimization...

You can post other tweaks here too, maybe we can make a good thread out of it.

How about NVMax, Riva Tuner for video

TweakUI for Windows

Tweak-XP for Windows XP

and go into your BIOS and disable useless stuff and crank up ur FSB...

that's all i can think of

Why didn't you just come out and say you wanted it, lol

**chrisjk** · Feb 2nd, 2002, 01:40 PM

the people who assembled my computer were complete morons. They set the bios chip efficiancy thingy to minimal - for slower chips. At the time i bought mine it was one of the fastest chips out! how dumb can you be?

i can't believe you trusted somebody else to build your comp for you

TweakUI is awesome, plain, simple, and effective.

Anyone have a hack that can take away the backgrounds of the icon text? I have a nice background and they're really screwing it up.

**kalicki** · Feb 2nd, 2002, 08:33 PM

Well, sort of, but my numbers are from Florida to the Megapath server, so I guess it's all relative...
