Task Manager

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.configuration_manage (More info?)

i also am learning the different methods of making my puter faster...as far as i can see,u can click Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Scheduled Tasks,then once there on the Advanced button,u can stop using,or pause the task scheduler.the other way i have found to stop,pause,or resume services is to click Start>Settings>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services....then a list comes up that u scroll thru....right click on any of these to view it's Properties...the properties dialog box enables u to stop or restart a service...and also tells u what dependencies it has to other services...i myself don't have any scheduled tasks assigned to my puter
