good thing it will still work that way...

anyway, i wanted to strip down my xp as hard as i could (with my limited knowledge) so that my xp runs faster

not that i really have a slow machine but i want to get rid of all possible crap from windows that i will never need...

is there any good tutorial where one can found out what components can be safely removed without causing any problems?

i mean some stuff is obvious but others isnt so...
