Me thinks there's a clue there.

Umm....that comment was directed at IB and ~*McoreD*~.

Don't see any reason for you to get upset by that. I don't think they will.

That's right belthazor. Yes I understood that post was directed to us and not to GSD. You don't need to get upset by that, GSD =)


But now comes all these confusions. Let's debug it please. lol.

If Windows clears pagefile by default = true And My dault ClearPageFileAtShutdown value = 0 Then
should I change it to 0 to not clear it?
Seems not logical to me.

I guess after SP1 or something it is not clearing the PageFile by default anymore, so I don't have to worry about it.


And by the way, Will
You had "MenuShowDelay"="0" in your Shutdown Windowx XP Faster reg and I was wondering why my Start menus were popping up soo fast....which I hated and that was the very reason why I didn't use TweakXP. But now I know how to control it...so thanks for that.

Hi GSD, I don't know if it is only for me, but the ClearPageFileAtShutdown value is already 0 in my Registry. I haven't installed any Tweak utilities nor I did play with the Registry earlier. Can anybody please confirm if they got the same result or not? Thanks.

yea default is 0

Yea some people like zero or 200. I like zero.

I've been using those hacks for ever, and they do make a big diff;

if you use XP SP1 or above, and your "clearpagefileatshutodown" value is 0, then your pagefile is NOT being cleared; if the value is 1, then it WILL be cleared, and your pc will take longer to shut down.

I'll be glad to explain the others in detail also, but they are pretty obvious as to what they do;

try setting the menu show delay to 100 or so, and it wont flash through quite as fast
