Greetings,

Lifted from another list, as I do not have windows7, I cannot vouch for it's
accuracy, maybe somebody can come back with their thoughts?

1. Using minimal Visual Effects

Disabling certain (or all) visual effects can definitely enhance
performance. To disable visual effects, do the following:

  1.. Press Windows key and while holding it down, press Pause/Break key.
  2.. In the window that appears, click on Advanced system settings in the
left side pane.
  3.. In the Advanced tab, under Performance Section, click on Settings
  4.. In the Performance Options window (refer figure) that appears, under
Visual Effects tab, disable the options that you do not need. Or simply
selecting 'Adjust for best performance' will disable all options.
  5.. After disabling the option, click Apply and then OK.
Doing the above might make the screen less attractive. But, the performance
will surely get a boost.
