were I can predefine and choose a proble for 1) Gaming 2)Video/Photo editing

Boot-up options are only available for different or multiple operating systems.

By right clicking MyComputer/properties /hardware/profiles
you can create different "Hardware" profiles ..........in it you could
disable hardware that you would not use for that session.

As such you also could set up a very various user accounts for which you
could disable certain programs from starting.As an example for a GAME user
you could disable the editing software,any program that sits on the Task Bar
is using resources you could use for games.I am not too sure if you can or
how to disable certain services from running under a specific user but that
would free resources as well.
Maybe someone with a little more knowledge on this subject would like to
join in now and explain if this is or is not possible.
