Windows Vista Tips & Tricks

1. If you hate the look of Aero, click Start/Control Panel/Themes and you can choose a non-Aero theme, such as Windows Classic. 2. Windows Vista’s installer can detect serial-ATA (SATA) drives without the need to provide a driver diskette. Don’t bother creating a diskette for your SATA drives before you install Vista . 3. If, for some reason, the Vista installation gets interrupted due to an unintentional shutdown or reboot, start the computer without booting the Vista DVD. Windows Vista’s installer should pick up where it left off. If it does-n’t, then restart the installation over from scratch. 4. When you perform a search with Vista ’s new, instant search feature, you can save the search in a special folder. This powerful feature allows you to create a virtual folder which, by default, is saved in your \\Searches\ folder. Every time you open such a folder, the search results are updated. 5. In Windows Vista, you can add additional clocks to the system tray. Click the c

Windows Vista’s Tweak

Windows Vista works in the background to automatically index all the files in the Start Menu, user profile folders and files setup for off line access by default. If you have many files in these locations and the files change often, the indexing service may slow down your system’s performance. Unlike Windows XP, Vista now allows you to easily tweak the indexing service following the steps below. It is recommended that you disable indexing for the other locations other than the Start Menu for maximum performance. Bear in mind that while this tweak speeds up your overall system performance, it will also slow you down when searching for files in those locations. 1. Click on the Start Button and enter Indexing Options. Hit Enter and the Indexing Options should load. 2. Click on the Modify button, followed by Show all locations. 3. Scroll through the tree-view and uncheck all options except the Start Menu. Hit OK. Note: For advanced users, you can also change other indexing options
