              You will have to do better than that by Havoc 2005-03-15 11:10:04
it's like saying you have anti-XP karma - it's a magical thing.

So - what could you possibly do to the system to make it unstable except screw with the guts of the OS in a misguided attempt to make it do something it was never intended to do?

I mean, I use tweakui and a few other registry enhancers - but with XP there's not that much you need to do to it. I slashed the services that it runs, killed off most of the /run/ stuff in the registry - and it runs faster and more stable than ever. You have to research all the services and run stuff before killing them off, of course. Some of the stuff is named really poorly.
