ProTools/Win7 Optimizations?

[MITCHM2005]

Pro Tools recommends a series of optimizations for Win7, like changes to the msconfig, screensaver, etc.
Since I am using my computer for more than DAWs...Is it possible to create a new user account, so that I won't have to constantly be changing the Win7 preferences back/forth?
Thanks,
Mitch

Some other sources for optimizations are:

Focusrite: Optimising your PC for audio on Windows 7 .: Focusrite Answerbase

As I understand it, some (? most) significant optimizations are system-wide, so probably can not be over-ridden per user. Things like streamlining the GUI should be configurable per user.

However, it seems possible that any optimizations will benefit general PC usage as well. You might need to experiment.
