Tuleks tagasi selle teema esimese postituse ja sealt esimese lause juurde - ".... kuidas teha oma "tavalisest" koduarvutist helistuudio."
Esimeses punktis mainitud link täna enam vabalt juurde ei lase. Õnneks on mul säilinud sealt tõmmis, mille ma hea meelega lühendatud kujul siiasamma postitaks. Ehk on sellest ka mõnel reaalset kasu.
Enda kohta võin öelda, et selle õpetuse järgi ikkagi s***st saia ei saa. 500MHz Pentium Celeron ei olnud ka pärast tuuningut suuteline jooksutama Cubase või Abletoni LE versioone, isegi E-MU Proteusest ei saanud polüfoonilist heli kätte
Mida keerulisemad ja mahukamad on muusika tegemiseks vajalikud programmid, seda võimsam peab olema arvuti. Ja see peaks olema alati veel varuga, sest tehnika areneb paganama kiiresti ja ühel hetkel selgub, et programmi järgmise versiooni jaoks on sinu hiljuti soetatud arvuti juba jäänud jõuetuks....
Saia pidin niisiis ikkagi ise ostma. Aga peale tuunimist on sellel saial nüüd küll suhkur peal. Ei mingeid mõttepause, hangumisi, ragistamist - kiire ja optimaalne nagu kellavärk!
Alljärgnev siis Win XP kohta. Ärge võtke asja puhta kullana, uisapäisa ei ole mõtet kõike allpoolkirjeldatut teha, palju sõltub kasutaja vajadustest ja harjumustest. Kõik punktid ei aita ka arvutit kiiremaks/võimsamaks, siin on ka mittevajaliku jura eemaldamise vihjeid - vahest ei tule selle pealegi, et mõnda ärritavat asja nii lihtsalt saab välja lülitada.
For consistency, before carrying out the tuning tips suggested below, switch to classic view in the control panel. To do this,

Set this to a fixed minimum and maximum value according to your existing RAM
16. Speed Up Menus
You can use this tip to speed up the Start Menu in Windows XP. You can customize the speed of the Start Menu by editing a Registry Key. Click Start, and then click Run.

Double-click this new entry, and then give it a hexadecimal value of 0 . Quit Registry Editor. Log off Windows, and then log back on.
24. Disable CDROM Autoplay
Disabling CDROM autoplay no longer offers a significant performance benefit in Windows XP, and therefore you do not need to disable it. Just don't insert a CD during a crucial recording. However, if you really want to disable it then:
Start > Run > Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom
Set autorun to 0.
25. Use Notepad to edit the sysoc.inf file in the Windows/Inf folder. Do a search and replace for the word "hide" (leave match case unticked), replacing hide with nothing. Save the file.
TIP : If you can't see the "inf" folder, then in explorer make sure you click the "Show Hidden Files and Folders" option. Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View.
Go back to "Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel and select "Add/Remove Windows Components". Components that couldn't be seen before can now be viewed and removed. You will notice that Windows Messenger can now be removed, which can be a resource hog.
Reboot after removing components to take effect.
Typical components that can be removed are (there may be others depending on your requirements):
• Accesibility Options
• Indexing service
• Update Root Certificates
• Windows Automatic Updates
• Windows Messenger
• Games
• Desktop Wallpaper
• Explorer (Unless you use the audio PC for surfing of course)
• Communications
• MSN Explorer
