Okay, so i was wondering....i got a old ass pc...still able to play some games but well...i'd like to boost my fps and shit a little.

And well, would it be possible to make a session in windows xp that would sorta boot like a safe mode....boot only the essential...but for gaming? I dont know if you really get what i want or if its possible at all, but i'd like some of you high tech guys to tell me what you think and what you know about such a wierd idea.

Slective startup

Start -Run - msconfig
Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

Hmm, not much you can do with XP. It's pretty barebones as it is. With Vista/Seven you have a tonne of shit you can turn off..

I did a little google, look through some of these

There's a bunch of services you can disable in XP, but most of them are already set to manual and aren't running anyway.

Then of course you could make a lightweight nTune install, but that probably won't make too much difference either.

Ive found out a way to make said session, when i boot up i can select the profile i want, this should do the trick!

Thanks for the help mate, instant happy points heading your way!
