    Tweaking questions, please help!

    I tried deleting the desktop.ini file and that didn't help. I don't want each file's icon to be a thumbnail, because I have a large number of image files, and every time I go into an image folder and have to wait for all the thumbs to load. Does anybody know any other way to disable this "feature"? Thanks.

    Oh, and yes I do like disabling unecessary services. Waste of resources.

    I think you guys are thinking of something different. I know about the whole 'web view' and 'views' thing. I have everything set to classic view. What I'm talking about is that the actual icons instead of being a standard jpeg icon is a thumbnail of the picture. I don't remember it doing this before SP2(I had 2000 installed before, had problems, went back to NT, and then installed 2000 again after SP2 was released.)
  4. There are a few things I would like to see if anyone knows. First, can the Plug & Play service be disabled, or does this break your system. I really don't like it. Second, I don't like how I get thumbnail images in explorer for JPEG's(doesn't seem to do it for Bitmaps), can this be disabled? I found a key in the registry that said something about thumbnail autoextract and set it to '0', but that didn't do anything. Also, I disable all the services I don't need, including Server service. I get errors in event viewer(they don't actually affect my session, I just want to get rid of them) regarding perfnet counters. In Comp Management, in the performance log area, nothing is set up, but it still seems to be counting stuff(I get other messages in event viewer about performance counting things). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
