Yep, I've been playing video games for over 25 years now, and I can say that for the smoothest, trouble free gaming it's best to stop as many programs running in the background as possible, and (in WinXP) also stop and set to manual all non-citical services. Besides gaining fps, a lot of randmom and unexplainable CTD's will also be eliminated.
