XP Startup and Performance Tweaks tartup and Performance Tweaks

Posted 5/6/2003 - 11:02PM, by Ben "Ator" Rota
It's been a while since we added any tweaks to our "How-To's and Tweaks" section, but today we're going to remedy that with a handful of tweaks for the OS that more and more of you are running every day, Windows XP. The first set of today's tweaks focus on tweaking your boot time, and the rest of 'em center around general performance tweaks, some aimed at overall OS performance and some at application performance. We hope you like 'em, but let me add one more warning to the ones you're going to get in the article itself: some of these involve monkeying around with your registry, an act not to be taken lightly, especially by the inexperienced. So back up, boyos! With that, on to the tweaks! [Ars Technica]
