Some little tricks to give your XP an acceleration while being booted or shutdown.
From 'Run' type 'regedit' (without quotation marks ).
Look for the key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\Desktop
Bring two values \"HungAppTimeout\" e \"WaitToKillAppTimeout\" in 1500 (default 20000)
The key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control
Even here, bring the value \"WaitToKillServiceTimeout\" in 1500 (default 5000)
And in order:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\Desktop
Create a new string demonstrating ShutDownWaitTime assigning the value 1500.
With this command indicate how many milliseconds the system must wait until the kernels begin the shutdown procedure.
In Windows XP there is a command that, when run, allows the OS to optimize the programs that are loaded in phases during Startup.
The command is:
Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks
From launch through Run ....
Its a batch process that can last several minutes (including a dozen ...), but should, then, optimize what is loaded during startup.
Another thing you can do is act in the 'prefetch' Windows ....
ie, move the folder C:\\WINDOWS\\prefetch and delete all files except Layout.ini
Then modify this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Con trol\\Session Manager\\Memory Management\\PrefetchParameters
Bringing value \"EnablePrefetcher \" 5
