hey you can also go into the registry and edit the shut down settings so your pc goes alot quicker, but i forgot how to do that now. Thanks for the other tips thou, they were very useful! Shame windows XP wont restart quickly ¬_¬ hope that comes up in vista.

nah still expensive , it's much cheaper upgrading your memory than buying a new pc aint it?

this computer im using right now, i have it for about 5 years now, pentium 4 1,6 ghz just bought another memory (total of 768 ram) and it's much faster, is it because i often defrag my computer once a week? and i also unload unneccessary startup program on the msconfig..

Is Msdos.sys file only available in win9x, i am using winxp and this file is not available in winxp ... is any other file winxp used.

it more the apperance then wallpaper use windows classic instead of windows xp apperance to save some ram and to increase preformance a bit when your using more programs.

Thanks! I've already tried a couple of these suggestions and my computer is running better already. Took me a few hours to defragment my computer
When I started the defragger, the whole screen lit up in red (indicating fragmented files).
As a result, it said it's performance was 50% better.

Also I heard getting more random access memory can help too. I need some more of that

The file is in windows xp. Just go to the C drive and click on WINDOWS. It helps to set the view to list and the files are in alphabetical order. No point though because the same [Options] mentioned in the first post are different to that of windows xp.
