Performance 1

[clayton74]

Hello All
In the system properties / advanced, there is an option to adjust for best apperance. Does anybody know the registry keys that are affected when the is selected. We have a network and find the pc's run better with this option checked, but dont fancy a walk around to apply this setting, would prefer to do this by a script.

Thanks in advance
Andy

Adjust Windows XP's Visual Effects setting, Group Policy setting or a registry subkey

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\VisualFXSetting registry subkey. The default value of 0 is Let Windows choose what's best for my computer. Change the value to 1 for Adjust for best appearance or 2 for Adjust for best performance.
