Im a billboard reporting deejay (10 years now), been deejaying for more than 30 years. Starting veejaying (virtual dj) about 5 years ago. Veejay/Deejay in the DC/Baltimore area. Ive learned to do my own Music video editing with mixable intro/outros..which i enjoy very much.

thought i would post my finding on services i have disabled in windows vista

i have two different laptops i use with Virtual DJ 6/7

1) Dell XPS Core 2 Extreme 2.8, 3Gig Ram,Nvidia 8700 Geforce (windows XP)

2) HP Dual Core 1.86, 3gRam, Mobile Intel 965 express (windows Vista)


I dont have virus protection,internet services on these laptops, i strictly use them for veejaying/deejaying.

Windows Services Disabled on Vista Laptop (no issues running virtual dj with these disabled) (WARNING! disable service a few at a time, til you get most of them disabled)
You can keep a log by exporting the list within windows (Start/Settings/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services/Action/Export List)
This works for me, some services disabled might not work for others, so take it slow, if you're not sure, then leave it alone, also look up the services title online and get more information that way.
