How To: Boot Windows XP Faster

Waiting for your system to boot up can be a nasty thing, more important it takes some time.
It usually happens when there`s a bunch of stuff piling up on the disc space, sucking up your memory. To avoid this unpleasant situation take these steps and start using them on your own computer.If your whole system is running unusually slow I suggest you read our how to optimize windows xp and make it faster article.



1) Open a new notepad document and type “del c:>windows>prefetch>ntosboot-*.* >q” without the quotes, then save it to C: as “ntosboot.bat“.To save it as a bat file instead of a .txt file you just have to change file type to All Files in the “Save as type:” drop down menu.

2) Go to “Run” from the “Start” menu and type “gpedit.msc” then click OK.

3) In “Computer Configuration” tab find the “Windows Settings” option and double click on it, then again double click on “Shutdown” which takes place in the right window.

4) Next thing is to open a new window, click “Add” , “Browse” , and find your “ntosboot.bat” file and click “Open” button.When done, you`re supposed to be able to confirm the process by clicking “OK” button, “Apply” button and yet another “OK” to exit.

5) Select “Run” from the “Start Menu” and enter the following “devmgmt.msc” then click Enter.
Double click on “IDE/ATAPI controllers” then right click of the mouse on “Primary IDE Channel“, selecting “Properties“.

6) Select the “Advanced Settings” tab then on the device or the one that doesn’t have “device type” greyed out, select “none” instead of “autodetect” and click “OK“. Right click on “Secondary IDE channel“, select “Properties” and repeat this: “Advanced Settings” then select “none” instead of “autodetect” and click “OK“.

If all the above was done correctly you will notice the difference the next time you reboot.
