rolleyes TweakXP 2.0.11 or Xsetup 6.3?

So then which one offers best performnce?

I had tweakxp Version 2.0.11 (the latest to date) and had problems when i updated from 2.07. What tweaking progs for XP do you think are best from performnce and power options?

TweakXp seemed to give me more speed, however, i too had problems with it. Xsetup requires you to be more computer savvy while tweakxp is more of a no brainer.
actually, the best tweaking prog i've used is Hare by dachshund software which automatically does CPU tasking and other tweaks. However, i stopped using it when i read the program's description on the website...an 88 bit kernel written in C++ that accelerates common system instructions....for some reason i don't really trust that. but if u want to check it out go to http://www.dachshundsoftware.com/index.html
