That's what threw me for a loop; the idea that logging in as a different user would free up extra system resources. When he mentioned Power User, and then said something about fooling around with the user accounts ... I failed to see the connection. I thought he had misinterpreted whatever he had been reading.
Beyond turning off unnecessary programs, and perhaps doing the Registry tweak to put the system cache in memory, and tweaking the video card, I'm out of ideas.
I know that logging in as a different user can offer better <i>security</i> for online gaming, but I fail to see how being a Power User offers better performance due to more system resources being available. But maybe it's just me, and I'm working my way up from a brain-fart to a full-fledged stroke.
AGGGHHHH! Dial 911. (And make sure that my ICU nurse is a hottie, or I'll refuse to eat my pudding.)
