NIC buffers are for internet speed, and the backbone of CyberWizard's tweaks. I heard that they are selling pretty well on the Deluxe tweaks. Anyone want to leak some info? ;) :p

Yea Lobo, Im just getting around to my IRQ's it definately seems to make more of a difference with NT rather than 9x systems. :)

Are you aware of any unnecessary processes that can be shut down in the Windows Task Manager? This being the XP Pro version and all ?

Also I noticed they migrated the "msconfig" from 9x. used to have to disable start-up apps this in the reg that im aware of ..still would like to find out the difference between "services" and " processes" though.
