VERY dangerous

Hi guys

there are several posting with incomplete or wrong keys/values and even typos!!!

To cerate your own personalized tweaks which YOU also understand, check the following pages:

www.winguides.com

Here are most systems and most important keys documentet!

For tweaking of services and/or several profiles check:

www.blackviper.com

Ugly site and hard to navigate but great content!

Have fun and be careful about what tweaks you use

======================

In case you are interested why I wrote something down everyboday should know:

After 2 days triubleshooting I found out that a TCPIP tweak was missspelled and the reason why I could not connect to the internet anymore...

...better read next time, or even better: I willl do it myself...

not to disregard your statements...but a couple of things...

1. If you do not know how to write a reg file...then you really shouldnt be adding reg tweaks (IMO). I believe I know what reg tweak you are talking about and it was missing the [] and the "'s...which if you know how to write a reg file, you should have been able to find the error.

2. You should only apply tweaks that you want...there are like a million reg tweaks and a lot of people just copy others. I would pick and choose, and I would also read the entire thread of reg tweaks because more than likely if there is an error, it has been adressed.

3. If it fails in a virtual environment, I would check my current installation. I went line by line for over 100 reg tweaks that I apply and set it for how I want them because some people like certain things whereas I dont.

As for blackviper...I use a combination of his safe services and his descriptions for my services part of the reg file...but he will not allow you to post the combination, in fact you cant not post your reg file if it includes his info...not that I think anything will happen, but it is taking someones else's work. I emailed him about it and about giving him proper credit, his response was send people to his site so they can download the info from him.

I've been on both of those site now for a long time

there are both good. though blkviper needs a new design for his page.

if u don't know how to deal with registry, I'm sure u saw this in winguides DON'T, they have a nice software for it. if u don't know how to deal with the registry download some programs that do know.

its called winguides tweak manager.. well okay i've been using this I even purchased it. but now they don't update it . but its okay since I use 4 other tweaking programs. each have a different use...

@evilvoice that's just BS. he doesn't create the windows registry tweaks. they're known. he doesn't do anything special, just combined some info together. the services reg is how it looks in the registry. i'd argue that u can not post your regs.

@ everyone

well i don't know the first thing about reg files, but none the less

i have become a copy and paste kind of guy, and you know what??

i've had no problems, and the reg tweaks have been great, except

i don't know how many times i read that "remove shortcut to" didn't

work, it was just missing the []. Sorry but i say read'em and just use

what you understand and need and enjoy!!

thanks for all the knowledge gained and fun i've had as a result of this site....

Winguides is quick to publish registry keys that don't do anything, like the infamous IRQ priority tweak. What a waste of time. How about the QoS tweak...does nothing.

Its a good place to locate tweaks that you've forgotten but I wouldn't use that site for starting from scratch.
