Shutdown XP Faster

[presh4u]

Like previous versions of windows, it takes long time to restart or shutdown windows XP when the "Exit Windows" sound is enabled. To solve this problem you must disable this useless sound.

Click Start button.
Go to settings > Control Panel > Sound, Speech and Audio devices > Sounds and Audio Devices > Sounds.
Then under program events and windows menu click on "Exit Windows" sub-menu and highlight it. Now from sounds you can select, choose "none" and then click Apply and OK.
Now you should see some improvements when shutting down your system.

You could always pull the plug to the power supply.

U SHOULD JUST PULL THE PLUG (possible short circuit)

I think you should pull off the case and throw water on your PC. Never turn on method. Plus it keeps it cool lol.

Well, personally i NEVER shutdown my rig, it is MUCH faster to hibernate it, it loads window in a flash, it's the sure way to go. If you must shutit down quick thne hold the POWER button and it will urn off in aprox 10 secs, maybe less...
