Disabling Visual Effects

Many of the new visual effects that are available in Windows XP can slow the perceived
performance of a computer by making dialog boxes, windows, and menus take
longer to open and work with. By default, Windows enables visual effects based on the
capabilities of a computer, but you can enable or disable specific visual effects to strike
your own balance between performance and appearance.

Microsoft Windows XP provides quick access for enabling and disabling visual effects. From the
Start menu, right-click My Computer and then choose Properties. In the System Properties
dialog box, on the Advanced tab, click Settings in the Performance section to open the Performance Options dialog box.

You can choose from the four options for visual effects:
■ Let Windows Choose What’s Best For My Computer
■ Adjust For Best Appearance, which enables all the effects
■ Adjust For Best Performance, which disables all the effects
■ Custom, which allows you enable and disable the effects yourself
