Would This Be Helpful?

I am not going to try it as I have a great running system, but when I go to a laptop and X79 I might want to lighten the Mollasses a little.

Cheers for the link Jimmy. I will read up about it first though before trying it out, but thanks.

The main thing on the laptops is to turn off the stupid Windoze power-management crap.
Keep the CPU running - especially when plugged in.

I don't have any of the old computer issues having to do with network interrupt, so I think nowadays this is redundant.

Every other so-called tweak is semi-redundant for doing audio IMO.

yeah, probably not worth the trouble, but serious tweakers may get a little more out of the system that way.

the power management is where most of the trouble exists. that and properties\advanced\performance....
choosing "adjust for best perfomance" kills the main resource hog, fancy windows and taskbars.

rt7lite seems to be the same for Win7 what nLite is for XP.
It´s not for the tweaks mainly and for Xp it was usefull to create a shrinked OS not installing all the bloatware being obsolete for a audio system but installing all necessary drivers w/ the installation of the OS in one go.
If it works as good as nLite does/did for XP,- it might be very usefull for setting up a very small and stable system for a live rig on a very small SSD system drive, incl. the OS, the apps and all VST plugins.
Quality single level cell SSDs are expensive,- so if a 32-64GB one will be enough for a 64Bit system, it saves money.
