Remove Window Animation - Make It Run Faster

make your computer run a little faster.
You can shut off the animation displayed when you minimize and maximize Windows.
1. Open RegEdit
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control panel \Desktop\WindowMetrics
3. Create a new string value "MinAnimate".
4. Set the value data of 0 for Off or 1 for On

this should put less stress on your graphics card if you have an older computer.

You can accomplish this same task, and several others without even having to go into the registry editor. (Which might I add, you can easily break your whole system in there).

Simply click on start --> control panel --> Performance & Maintenance --> System
Or right click on My Computer and go to properties.

Then click on advanced.
Then you will see an area that says performance, click on the settings button.

From that screen you can select from a ton of performance vs. visual look options.

On a 2GHz machine, this fix is negligible. However, it's good for slower machines.

it's effective for every computer smile.gif . Because there is an animation, there also is a delay (the time when you actualy play the animation). On slower computer, this animation tends to take a bit longer, so disableing it would be more efficient.
On the other hand, when the cpu('s) are fully loaded (video compression, compiling, ...), you might see a big difference, even when you're on a fast machine.

  4. Remove Your Name From Win Xp Pro
    (5)
    Windows XP places the name for the person currently logged on to the system at the top of the Start
    menu. The reason for this is to make it easier to tell which user is logged on to a Windows XP
    system set up with multiple users. However, if you're the only person using the computer, you
    don't really need to have your name at the top of the Start menu. You can remove it using the
    Group Policy console (the Microsoft Management Console snap-in used to edit Group Policy objects).
