I. System Optimization Settings
1, System General Optimization
1) Turn off the special effects in the system properties, this is a simple and effective speed-up recipe. Click Start → Control Panel & Rarr; System & Rarr; Advanced & Rarr; Performance & Rarr; Settings & Rarr; In the visual effects, set to adjust for the best performance & rarr;
2)“My Computer"-"Properties"-“Advanced”-“Error Report>-Select “Disable Error Reporting”.
3) Click "Start and fail recovery" - "Settings" will "write events to the system log", "send management alarms", "automatic restart" The three items are removed. Then set the following "write debug information" to "ld"; no & rdquo;.
4)“My Computer"-“Properties"-“Advanced”-“Performance>-“Set”-“Advanced”, set virtual memory value to physics 2.5 times the memory, the initial size and maximum value are set to the same (such as your memory is 256M, you can set it to 640M), and the virtual memory is set outside the system disk (Note: when moving well, the original File deletion).
5) Move the "My Documents" folder to another partition: Right-click "My Documents" - "-" Attributes & rdquo; - & ldquo; Mobile & rdquo;, set to the partition outside the system disk can.
6) Transfer the IE temporary folder to other partitions: Open IE, select “Tools”-“internet options”-“General”-“Settings”-“Move files Folder & rdquo;, set the settings to the partition outside the system disk.
2. Speed up XP's opening and shutting down
1) First, open the “System Properties” tab and click “Advanced” tab to open “Settings in the “Startup and Recovery” section. ;, remove the “ system startup & rdquo; two √, if the multi-system user retains “ display operating system list time ” √. Click "Edit" to make sure that the additional attribute of the startup item is /fastdetect instead of /nodetect. Do not add the /noguiboot attribute first, because guiboot is used later.
2) The next step is very important. Open the “Hardware” tab in the “System Properties” dialog box, open “Device Manager” and expand “IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller”. Double-click to open the “Secondary IDE Channel” property, click the “Advanced Settings” tab, and change the transfer mode of devices 1 and 2 to “DMA (if available)”, if the device type can be selected “No” ” is selected as “ no & rdquo;, point to complete the settings. The same method is set to “main IDE channel”.
3) Set pre-read to improve boot speed, open the registry, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Memory Management\\PrefetchParameters, the right window changes the value of EnablePrefetcher to 1 (0-disable pre-read, 1 - Read-ahead application, 2-system start pre-read, 3-pre-read both. If the computer is PIII 800MHz or higher, try changing the value to 4 or 5.
4) By the way, the shutdown is also accelerated. Open the registry (Start-Run-regedit), click “My Computer"Open “Edit" menu"Find", enter AutoEndTasks, point to “ find the next ”. Double-click to open the found result to modify “Value data” to 1 (this is the program that allows the system to automatically close and stop responding). Then find HungAppTimeout under AutoEndTasks (set its "Value data" to 2000 or smaller, recommended to 200), and then find WaitToKillAppTimeout (set its "Value data" to 2000 or smaller, recommended Is 1000). Here, by the way, the menu delay time is also modified. Find the MenuShowDelay under the AutoEndTasks. The value is in milliseconds. If you want to remove the menu delay, set it to 0. After the modification, click “Edit” menu, open ““ find the next” (shortcut F3), continue to search, and modify the found results in the same way as the previous step (note: the values should correspond to the same).
5) Use the above method to find WaitToKillServiceTimeout and set the value the same as WaitToKillAppTimeout.
6) After enjoying the fun of speedy restart, we will further accelerate the startup speed, open “system property”-“senior”-“start and failback"set, open<quo;system startup ” editing of the area, add /noguiboot after the fastdetect, so that the scroll bar will not be displayed at startup. If you really like the display of this scroll bar, you don't have to do this step.
7) MsConfig. Select “Run”-“msconfig”. What we need to do is to “start” the tab, click on it, this tab shows all the programs that are running when Windows starts. There is no program here that is life-and-death for Windows, so feel free to remove the unwanted ones.
3, reduce the boot disk scan waiting time
Select “ start → run & rdquo;, in the run dialog box type "ldk; chkntfs /t:0”, you can set the disk scan wait time to 0; If you want to ignore scanning a partition when the computer starts, such as the C drive, you can enter the “chkntfs /xc:” command; if you want to resume scanning the C drive, you can use the “chkntfs /dc:” command, ie All chkntfs default settings can be restored, in addition to the countdown to automatic file checking.
4, turn off the debugger Dr. Watson
Run drwtsn32, remove all but the "dump all thread context". Otherwise, if there is a program error, the hard disk will be loud for a long time, and it will take up a lot of space. If you have encountered this situation before, please find the user.dmp file and delete it, it may save tens of M space. This is the scene of the error program and it is useless to us. Then open the registry, find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\AeDebug subkey branch, double-click the Auto key name under it, change its "Value data" to 0, and finally press F5 to refresh the setting. Effective, so completely cancel its operation. In addition, the memory.dmp that appears in the blue screen can also be deleted. In “My Computer & Rarr; Properties & Rarr; Advanced & Rarr; Settings & Rarr; Write Debugging Information & Rarr; Select None & rdquo;.
5, close & ldquo; system restore & rdquo;
mouse right click on the desktop & ldquo; my computer & rdquo;, select & ldquo; attribute & rdquo; find & ldquo; system restore & rdquo; remove, this can save A lot of space.
6, close "sleep support"
Hibernation will take up a lot of hard disk space, if you use less, you may want to turn it off. Open the “Control Panel”-“Power Options”-“Sleep” tab, uncheck the "Enable Hibernate" checkbox.
7, cancel the support for ZIP compressed files
Click Start → Run, type: "regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll", double quotes in the middle, and then press Enter to confirm, the sign of success is A prompt window, the content is roughly: Dll UnrgisterServer in zipfldr.dll succeeded.
8, do not load DLL files (uninstalling useless dynamic links)
Find the registry as follows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer, then create a double named AlwaysUnloadDLL with a value of 1 Byte value. If you want to remove this optimization, just set the key to 0 (you can simply delete the key).
9, close the error report
In the "System Properties" dialog box, select the "Advanced" tab, click the "Error Report" button, in the pop-up "error report" dialog In the box, select “ disable error reporting & rdquo; single option, and finally click “ OK & rdquo;
10, speed up the window display speed
Open the registry editor, find HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\Desktop\\WindowMetrics, the right window to find the MinAniMate key value, change it to 0.
11, close the automatic update
“ my computer & rdquo; right click, select “ attribute & rdquo; - & ldquo; automatic update & rdquo; - & ldquo; turn off automatic update, I will manually update the computer & rdquo;, click “OK”.
12, speed up the display of the start menu
Open the registry editor, find the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\Desktop\\MenuShowDelay" primary key, adjust the key value appropriately, the minimum can be set to “0”. If this method doesn't work, please start from “Control Panel”-“Display Properties”-“Show Effects"-“Advanced", cancel the selection of "show menu shadow" The display of the menu.
