Since i been tweaking my machine today i thought i'd share some of the tools i used for this as they do a pretty good job and also links to tweaking other OS:es such as XP64 and Vista for those of you who have untweaked sytems.

Feel free to share your ideas, links and software recommendations here.

Anytime m-Que be sure you know what you're doing when you start with tweaking as the wrong thing may slowdown your system or make it unstable or in worst case not even start so please be careful.

polynurb: You're welcome and thanks you too, those are some great utils, especially Rivatuner.

Here's a couple more, these aren't exactly tweaking tools but they're useful.

Thanks Max for the links. From your experience tweaking xp64 what are the benefits or improvements that you have noticed?.

You're welcome wagurto, but unfortuntely i don't even own XP64 so i never tested it and can't recommend any tweaks for it. If it's similar to XP32 then you should be able to use just about the same type of tweaks, tricks and programs on it unless they modify registry entries as i guess that XP64 has a bit different registry compared to XP32.

Maybe some XP64 users can post their suggestions and ideas about this if they know more.
