Q: I have recently
upgraded to Vista Premium. I have noticed that my CPU
usage is at 90% or better most all of the time. It takes
a long time just to get anything accomplished using this
operating system. Is there anything that I can do to
speed things up?
A: Sure. Try disabling the Indexing Service. What
frequently happens is the Indexing Service is crawling
through all of your systems data indexing it for quick
searchable access. If you disable the Indexing, you will
not keep the Search feature from searching, you will
simply disable the indexing. If you do not have a
problem finding files, folders and programs on your
system, you will not need this service. Here's how to
disable it:
- Go to Start
- Select Control
Panel
- Select
Administrative Tools
- Select Services
- Find the Indexing
Tool, click it and select Disable
- Click OK
