Correct setting of the operating system is correct operation for a long period of time, as well as a guarantee of stable interaction between computer hardware and software. Tuning most often implies optimization of some parameters.

Operating system Windows XP
Instructions
Step 1
System optimization consists in adding or deactivating some components, for example, graphic effects, started services, etc. In general, setting can take several hours, but sometimes it is enough to limit yourself to a few basic parameters.
Step 2
First of all, you should pay attention to the graphic effects, which do not bring any positive moments, except for a harmonious perception. If you are not interested in graphics, it is recommended to change the desktop wallpaper to simpler ones, set the classic design theme and reduce the bitness of the icons in the system.
Step 3
All these operations can be done in the "Properties: Display" applet, which is launched through the context menu of the desktop or by using the "Display" element in the "Control Panel". In the window that opens, go to the "Desktop" tab and change the background image. On the last tab, you can change the bitness of the displayed elements.
Step 4
You can then reduce the load time of frequently used applications. To do this, change the launch parameter in the properties of the program shortcut. Open the shortcut of any utility (context menu of the file, item "Properties") and add the value / prefetch in the "Object" field: 1. The modified line will look like this: C: / Program Files / Primer / primer.exe / prefetch: 1. Click the Apply and OK buttons to save your changes.
Step 5
You can now proceed directly to the kernel of your system. For its long service life, it is recommended to decrease the values of some of the parameters below. The operating system registry contains HungAppTimeout and WaitToKillServiceTimeout parameters with values of 5 thousand m / s and 20 thousand m / s, respectively. These values must be changed to 2 thousand m / s and 5 thousand m / s.
Step 6
It is also recommended to change the value of the AutoEndTasks = 0 parameter by one. This action will automatically close the frozen applications without the accompanying message appearing in the window.
Step 7
In some cases, it becomes impossible to delete the avi-file, or when you delete it, the computer's processor completely freezes. The solution to this problem is to remove the value of the parameter located at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT / SystemFileAssociations \.avi / shellex / PropertyHandler.
