*Force windows to load the kernel in memory (very effective tweak for
windows XP)*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This one is the best tweak for windows I ever found, and it works very well

Here is what you have to do :

1) Open the regedit tool (Start -> Run -> regedit.exe )

2) Use the navigation in the left and go to HKEY LOCAL
MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management

3) Double click the *DisablePagingExecutive* attribute, and put 1 in the
decimal value field
This will make the drivers and the XP kernel run in memory.

4) Double click the *LargeSystemCache* attribute, and put 1 in the
decimal value field
This will improve performance of the kernel

5) Double click the *IOPageLockLimit* attribute. On some later versions
of windows XP that doesn't exists, so if this is the case you're done
Otherwise you have to put to the hex value : 4000 for pcs with 128 mb
ram, 10000 for 256 mb ram and if you have more put 40000. This value
specifies how many bytes can be used for I/O operations in your system.

That's it, enjoy windows
