Here’s how! by Larry Miller http://www.levelerslair.com/wordpress/2006/10/21/a-faster-windows-xp-here%e2%80%99s-how/#comment-633 Larry Miller Thu, 27 Nov 2008 23:55:18 +0000 http://leesystems.no-ip.com/wordpress/?p=40#comment-633 A few problems here F. OPTIMISE YOUR PAGEFILE: The suggestions here could easily cause severe performance problems becasue of a pagefile that is too small. A better solution would be to set the configuration to System Managed. Contrary to popular opinion this is NOT inefficient. No pagefile resizing will occur in most cases. I. IMPROVE XP SHUTDOWN SPEED: WARNING Using the suggested settings could cause data loss. The default settings are safer. If shutdown time is a excessive it is best to troubleshoot the problem and not use a registry modification. J. IMPROVE SWAPFILE PERFORMANCE: conservativeswapfileusage is not supported on XP. This setting is for Windows 98 and Windows ME ONLY. It has never been supported on any other system. XP manages memory very well on it's own without any such tweaks. K. ENSURE XP IS USING DMA MODE: This will be selected by default if it is supported on your hardware. If it is not supported it will be reset after a reboot.

If your Windows XP denies to run due to an error corresponding to lost HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can fix this by using the XP installation CD. Just boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then run "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and delete it. Launch "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot Regards, Carl Good Day
