Here is a list of some useful options in propeties of a device, in
device manager.
If anybody knows of any others, feel welcome to add them. They may be
helpful for people.

mouse,keyb - power management tab "allow this device to bring the
computer out of standby"

network card - advanced tab , change MAC, and other options like
enabling/disabling WOL
(some network cards have this option)

IDE ATAPI controllers - set to DMA.
(sometimes people have problems when it is not set to that. Since PIO
- the thing which was before DMA, was very slow).

sound video audio controllers..video codecs
you can see them listed, and remove any if you want - maybe if
experimenting with something.
gspot is probably more powerful.

Aren't all of these settings available under their respective icons in the
Control Panel?

it seems that some are, some aren't.
