What services are safe to Disable?

T

Toscarelli

What services are safe to Disable. What services are considered
Superfluous? The computer in question is not used for Internet, Networking
or even Printing. Just as a Digital Audio Workstation / DAW. Noticing
there's many stock MS services that can probably be done without, please
elaborate! "Disable Indexing Service" or any scare tactics, like in my Bios
Flashing Post earlier, need not apply.

Reasons why I want to? Posssible resource free-ups, so the computer has
more Focus on its main intention. I did visit www.musicxp.com for the
tweak session. It it quite plausible.



Thanks in advance?
