Set it a value lower than 2000 (Mine is set to 200).
and !
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 then go to settings -&amp;gt; control
panel -&amp;gt; Sound,Speech and Audio devices -&amp;gt; Sounds and Audio
Devices -&amp;gt; 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 can see some improvements when shutting down your
system.

Hide ur folders.. never known trick !

Disguise them to “Recycle Bin”
Rename any folder with extension {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
eg,
if u’ve a folder games
press F2,
then type, “games.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}”
c the magic….
then 2 get to original form,
remove the extension using
“ren games.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} games” in dos or as a bat file
n u are done..

Lock pc just by double clicking mouse

You can lock your XP workstation with two clicks of the mouse. Create a new shortcut on
your desktop using
a right mouse click, and enter ‘rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation’ in the location
field.
Give the shortcut a name you like. That’s it — just double click on it and your computer will
be locked.
And if that’s not easy enough, Windows key + L will do the same.

SPEED UP UR ACROBAT READER (ALMOST LIKE NOTEPAD)

Do u get irritated when acrobat reader takes 5/10 seconds to load when you want to open a
pdf document. There is a way to speed up the loading.
1. Go to the installation folder of acrobat reader
(C:\program files\adobe\acrobat\reader\.. whatever)
2. Move all the files and folders from the “plugins” directory to the “Optional” directory. (I
repeat.. cut and paste the files NOT copy &amp; paste).
Also make sure that acrobat reader is not open else it will lock the files and not allow you to
move the files).
Now your acrobat reader will load very fast
and almost as good as notepad..

Remove Stored username and Passwords !

To remove the Stored User Names and Passwords from your system, try this:
Click Start, Run and type Control keymgr.dll
Remove the entries from the list.
The other ways to access this dialog are:
Type Control Userpasswords2 in RUN box, click Advanced, Manage Passwords
-or-
From Control Panel, select your User Account, click Manage your network passwords
It Works

Remove the Username and picture from Windows XP New Start Menu

The User account picture can be removed by turning off the Welcome Screen. Or, by
switching to Windows Classic theme. Follow the method described in this article if you want
to remove the username and picture from the Start Menu, without disabling the Welcome
Screen and Windows XP Theme.
For those who want to remove the user name and user account picture from Start Menu, in
order to have a blank blue panel at the top, try this:
Start Windows Explorer and go to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures
From that folder, rename the BMP file which corresponds to your user account.
( For example, if your username is Robert, rename Robert.bmp to old_Robert.bmp )
Next, rename the following folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account
Pictures\Default Pictures
to something else, say…
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account
Pictures\No_Default Pictures
To remove the user name, follow these steps
Start regedit.exe and navigate to the this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft\ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \
Explorer
In the right-pane, set NoUserNameInStartMenu value-data to 1
Close Regedit.exe and restart Windows.
You’ll end up with a blue space at the top of the Start Menu.
To get back the username and the picture, reverse the above procedure.
For the New Start Menu, Windows XP looks for the .bmp file in the folder
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures
If the file is not found, it takes a picture from the “Default Pictures” sub-folder. By renaming
the .bmp and the “Default Pictures” folder, you’re giving no chance for Windows to fetch an
image for the Start Menu

Notepad Trick ! for complete list move to NOTEPAD TRICKS page !!

9/11 was Q33N ….Open your Notepad in ur computer and type the flight
number i.e Q33N… Increase the Font Size to 72, Change the Font to
Wingdings. U will be amazed by the findings.
log trick !! make ur Notepad a diary !!
Sometimes we want to insert current data and time, whenever we open the file in the notepad.
If you are a lazy person like me, who donĂ¢€™t like to press F5 whenever you open a
notepad. Then here is a trick to avoid this. Just add a .LOG in the first line of your text file
and close it.
Whenever you open the file with that text in the first line in the notepad, it will insert the
current date and time at the end of the file. You can start entering your text after that.
WHY?
The reason this happens:
In notepad, any other 4-3-3-5 letter word combo will have the same results.
It is all to do with a limitation in Windows. Text files containing Unicode UTF-16-encoded
Unicode are supposed to start with a “Byte-Order Mark” (BOM), which is a two-byte flag
that tells a reader how the following UTF-16 data is encoded.
1) You are saving to 8-bit Extended ASCII (Look at the Save As / Encoding format)
2) You are reading from 16-bit UNICODE (You guessed it, look at the Save As / Encoding
format)
This is why the 18 8-bit characters are being displayed as 9 (obviously not supported by your
codepage) 16-bit UNICODE characters

SPEED UP MENU DISPLAY.!!

When using the start menu the you will notice a delay between different tiers of the menu
hierarchy. For the fastest computer experience possible I recommend changing this value to
zero. This will allow the different tiers to appear instantly.
Start Regedit. If you are unfamiliar with regedit please refer to our FAQ on how to get
started.
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Select MenuShowDelay from the list on the right.
Right on it and select Modify.
Change the value to 0.
Reboot your computer.

CLICKING * .AVI FILES ON EXPLORER CAUSING 100% CPU USAGE.!!

Well windows seem to have a REALLY big problem when it comes to reading AVI files. It
seems that when you click on an AVI file in explorer, it’ll try to read the entire AVI file to
determine the width,height, etc. of the AVI file (this is displayed in the Properties window).
Now the problem with Windows is that if you have a broken/not fully downloaded AVI file
that doesnt contain this info, Windows will scan the entire AVI file trying to figure out all
these properties which in the process will probably cause 100% CPU usage and heavy
memory usage. To solve this problem all you have to do is the following:
1. Open up regedit
2. Goto HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler

Configure Gmail in your mobile

1. Enable POP in Gmail. See the I part to enable pop in your gmail account. Don't forget to click Save Changes when you're done.

2. Configure your client to match the settings below

Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL      :       pop.gmail.com

Use SSL                                         :       Yes

Port                                            :       995
......
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server                     :       smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)

Use Authentication                              :      Yes

Port for TLS/STARTTLS                           :       587 Port for SSL: 465

Account Name                                    :       your full Name

Email Address                                   :       your email address (username@gmail.com)

Password                                        :       your Gmail password

Unless you're using recent mode to download mail to multiple clients, make sure you've opted not to leave messages on the server.

Your Gmail settings determine whether or not messages stay on the server, so this setting in your client won't affect how Gmail handles your mail.

Please note that if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you won't be able to send mail through your client using your Gmail address.

Also, if you're having trouble sending mail but you've confirmed that encryption is active for SMTP in your mail client, try to configure your SMTP server on a different port: 465 or 587.

3. You're now ready to use POP with your Gmail address.

How to configure gmail account to send and receive mails in your outlook 2007

Add Your Gmail Account to Outlook 2007

Everybody loves Gmail, but some people use a desktop client, especially in corporate environments where Outlook is king. Adding your Gmail account to Outlook 2007 couldn’t be easier.

First we need to make sure your gmail account is set up to enable POP (Post Office Protocol). In Gmail just go to mail settings and choose the Forwarding and POP tab. Click on one of the options to enable POP.......




Update: Note the drop-down that says what to do when mail is accessed with POP3. Please do NOT change this to “Delete”.

Now open up Outlook 2007 and go to Tools \ Account Settings…



Under Account Settings choose the E-mail tab and click on New…




Enter in all of your gmail account information **make sure there is no check next to Manually configure server…** You do not have to go through these extra steps. Just click on Next.



After Outlook has successfully configured the e-mail server settings you can go ahead and click Finish.



Go back to your inbox and hit send/receive and you are done!



If this doesn’t work

If you are having problems with the automatic setup, you’ll need to choose the “Manually Configure Server” option, and then fill in your details as follows:



Here are the important settings:
Email Address: Your full gmail address
Incoming Mail Server: pop.gmail.com
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.gmail.com (Note: If you have problems with sending email you may have to check with your internet provider, as they often require you to send email through their system.
User Name: Your full gmail email address

Now you’ll need to click on the More Settings… button, and check the box on the Outgoing Server tab for “My outgoing server requires authentication”




Now switch to the Advanced tab, and check the box that says “This server requires an encrypted connection”, then change the fields to match these values:



Incoming Server: 995
Check the box for “This server requires an encrypted connection”
Outgoing Server (SMTP): 587
Change the type of encrypted connection to Auto, or use TLS if you have problems.



Close the dialogs and go through the rest of the wizard and everything should be working.
