Hi All,
My OS. XP Pro
I tried shutting down virus checkers and other files but kept getting a stuttering (hesitation) at 1 sec intervals.
So finally I downloaded a free version of Game XP. Its freeware from
http://www.theorica.net and works very well...
stutters are now gone.
This utility turns off all non essential services and can restore them whenever you want.
I been using it on and off for quite sometime. (never had to format etc.)
