I would suggest be careful and read everything on your screen during the tweaks.

1. Hold "windows key and press R"
2. Type in "services.msc"
3. Follow http://www.blackviper.com/service-configurations/black-vipers-windows-7-service-pack-1-service-configurations/ to turn every unnecessary services to "manual" so that they can still run when needed.
