Speed Up Windows Vista

It is normal for us to want our computers running at an optimal level, and this time round here's a tip for those who rock on to Windows Vista. Lifehacker was reporting that Windows Vista occupies a single CPU to boot itself by default, and it doesn't matter whether you're using a dual- or quad-core setup. In order to speed things up, you must enable multi-core booting by running msconfig from the Start Search box, click the "Boot" tab, check "Number of processors," and change the drop-down box to fit your processor. We find this “optimization” suspicious, but we’re lucky enough not to run Vista : – Has anyone tried this method themselves, and what do you think of it? Is the performance boost (if any) a spectacular or negligible one?
