Making Windows XP Start 60% Faster
Whenever you start your computer, you are faced with a few moments of thumb twiddling while Windows XP boots and prompts you to log on. Although you should expect to wait for a few moments, sometimes Windows XP seems to boot rather slowly. In fact, you may notice that over a period of time the PC that used to roar to life seems a bit sluggish instead. Fortunately, you can perform several techniques that help Windows XP get the bootup speed you want. This chapter explores how to put these techniques to work.

I also have my own tweaker that boosts startup and shutdown speed as much as 50%. Bootups and shutdowns are almost instant now :slight_smile:
I’ll upload it in few minutes, though it’s still not finished completely…

Though i had problems finding detailed documentation for certain things and some options were having strange values although they were meant for the very same tweak. But i digged only those which were repeated most times possibly excluding wrong tweaks.
