[QUOTE="fallenzeraphine, post: 3114022, member: 76400"] Vista is the Latest version of the Microsoft's Windows line of Operating systems, And its not a secret that it is a Huge system Resource hog, Most of which caused By Literary Hundreds of Unwanted background services. This Project is a attempt to make the 64Bit version of Vista As Fast as possible, hopefully bringing it close to the Performance of Windows XP SP3 We love so much (At least I do, and all performance freaks do). This is a Ongoing project and will be constantly Updated as I gather more information, and do experiments on how to Optimize Vista to behave as fast as possible. [B]~2008-10-06~[/B] * Installed Vista 64 SP1 with all the current Updates, Vista was installed on the Last partition of the Primary hard Drive of my system, First Partition Contained a Windows XP SP3 Installation, After Installing Vista It was Unable to Boot to XP, Because Vista didn't recognize where my XP installation was so I had to Insert them to the BCD (Boot Configuration Database) Manually. The following commads Will be useful to you if you encounter a Issue such as this. BCDEDIT.exe is the tool to edit the BC database, its located in Windows\system32 folder BCDEDIT /set - This command can set a entry option value Ex : BCDEDIT /set {current} Device partition=C: This example sets the Device value of the Current boot options Entry to Partition C: BCDEDIT /Delete - This command can delete a BCD entry Ex: BCDEDIT /Delete {current} /cleanup This example will delete the Current Boot entry and remove it from boot options menu. You can read the complete command Guide of BCDEDIT from this Microsoft document.
