Profiles

WinXP Home

Some time ago, I had a consultant create a profile to be used for gaming. I
believe it disables some resource hogs, and such, but I'm not sure. Anyhow,
on bootup I'm always asked which profile I want - "normal" or "gaming", and
the boot-up stops until I make a choice.

For the past six months, I haven't used "gaming", but may do so in the
future.

Questions:

1. Where are these profiles created/viewed/edited

2, Is there a way I can temporarily disable gaming on "bootup" to avoid the
bootup's stopping for my choice?

Look in the Windows Help files for "Hardware Profile".
