Hi: your message and one from Yuki talk about the advantages of turning
off "file indexing" in XP. I have searched Google and other sites and
found out HOW to turn it off. However, I can not find an explanation of
the **disadvantages** of turning off "file indexing". What does the
thing do and what will be missed with it off? I have XP Pro.
Replies appreciated.
Ken

If you turn off the extraneous things in XP (file indexing, UI effects,
auto-MSN messenger startup, etc), it seems a lot nicer than windows 2K.
Here's a few differences that are noticeable (YMMV based on
hardware/software):
- XP seems much more stable than 2K
- less mysterious memory blowups in XP compared to 2K
- faster application startup in XP
- *** fast-switch users - great for families/couples. you can switch out
of
your session to login screen, and another user can log in. Your programs
keep running. You can switch between logged in users, without logging
out.
- faster login in XP
- XP has driver verification and driver rollback.
- XP includes a defrag utility, unlike 2K.
However the XP licensing scheme isn't as easy to deal with.
