Simple way to improve the speed of XP

        In the process of using XP, the system running speed will become slower and slower over time. Some friends may think of reinstalling the system, but after reinstalling, so many applications should be reinstalled. How to What is the speed of XP upgrade without installing the system? As long as you operate in the following nine aspects, I believe that your XP will run again at high speed.

1. Speed ​​up the switch speed

When shutting down in Windows XP, the system will send a message to the running program and the remote server, telling them that the system should be shut down, and wait for the response to start the system. To speed up the boot process, you can first set the auto-end task, first find HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop, set the AutoEndTasks key to 1; then there is a "HungAppTimeout" under the branch, and change its value to "4000 (or less). The default is 50000; finally find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetControl, also set WaitToKillServiceTimeout to "4000"; by this setting the shutdown speed is significantly faster.

2, increase the broadband speed

Professional version of Windows XP defaults 20% The bandwidth, in fact, has no effect on our individual users. In particular, let it be fully utilized.

Enter gpedit.msc in "Start → Run" to open the Group Policy Editor. Locate "Computer Configuration→Administrative Templates→Network→QoS Packet Scheduler", select "Limitable Retainable Bandwidth" on the right, select "Properties" to open the Restrict Bandwidth Properties dialog box, select "Enable", and the original " 20" changed to "0", which releases the reserved bandwidth

3, optimize the network neighborhood

Windows XP Network Neighborhood when using the system will search for their own shared directory and printers that can be used as a network share and scheduled tasks related to the network in the task, and then displayed, so The speed is obviously much slower. If these features are not very useful for us, you can delete them. In the registry editor, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEsofewareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent VersionExploreRemoteComputerNameSpace, delete the (printer) and {D6277990-4C6A-11CF8D87- 00AA0060F5BF} (plan Task), restart the computer, visit Network Neighborhood again, you will find a lot faster.

4, speed up the startup speed

To speed up the startup speed of Windows XP. You can achieve the purpose by modifying the registry, in the registry Editor, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerMemory ManagementPrefetchParameters, find the EnablePrefetcher primary key on the right, change its default value of 3 to 1, so that the scroll bar scroll time will be reduced;

5, automatically close Stop response program

Sometimes, XP will prompt you that a certain program stops responding, which is annoying. We can let it shut itself down by modifying the registry. Change the value data of the character value AutoEndTasks to 1 in HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop. Log out or start again.

6, speed up the menu display speed

In order to speed up the display speed of the menu, we can set the following method: we can find the "MenuShowDelay" primary key under HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop, change its value to "0" Achieve the effect of speeding up the menu display.

7, clear the DLL file not used in memory

In the registry HKKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion, add an item AlwaysUnloadDLL in the Explorer, the default value is set to 1. Note: If the default value is set to 0, this function is disabled.

8, speed up read-ahead ability to improve boot speed

Windows XP read-ahead settings can increase system speed and speed up boot. Modify the following method to further improve the efficiency of the CPU: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSessionManagerMemoryManagement], in the right window of PrefetchParameters, change the value data of EnablePrefetcher as follows, if you use the PIII 800MHz CPU or above, change the value data to 4 or 5, otherwise it is recommended to keep The numeric data is the default value of 3.

9. Reduce the load of the project at startup

Many applications will add their own claims to the system startup group during installation. Each time the system is started, it will automatically run. This not only extends the startup time, but also the system resources have been activated after the startup. It is consumed!

Start the "System Configuration Utility", in the "Startup" item, list the items and sources loaded at system startup, and carefully check if you need it to load automatically, otherwise clear the check box before the project, the loaded project The less you start, the faster the start-up is naturally. This item needs to be restarted to take effect.
