How To Boot Xp Faster (updated)

NETWORK TECH WORLD First of all, this tweak only apply to those who only have one HDD on their primary IDE channel (nothing else on device 0 or 1) and a CD-ROM and/or DVD-ROM on the secondary IDE channel. Each time you boot Windows XP, there's an updated file called NTOSBOOT-*.pf who appears in your prefetch directory (%SystemRoot%Prefetch) and there's no need to erease any other files as the new prefetch option in XP really improves loading time of installed programs. We only want WindowsXP to boot faster and not decrease its performance. Thanks to Rod Cahoon (for the prefetch automation process...with a minor change of mine) and Zeb for the IDE Channel tweak as those two tricks, coupled together with a little modification, result in an EXTREMELY fast bootup:

1. Open notepad.exe, type "del c:windowsprefetch tosboot-*.* /q" (without the quotes) & save as "ntosboot.bat" in c:
2. From the Start menu, select "Run..." & type "gpedit.msc".
3. Double click "Windows Settings" under "Computer Configuration" and double click again on "Shutdown" in the right window.
4. In the new window, click "add", "Browse", locate your "ntosboot.bat" file & click "Open".
5. Click "OK", "Apply" & "OK" once again to exit.
6. From the Start menu, select "Run..." & type "devmgmt.msc".
7. Double click on "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
8. Right click on "Primary IDE Channel" and select "Properties".
9. Select the "Advanced Settings" tab then on the device 0 or 1 that doesn't have 'device type' greyed out select 'none' instead of 'autodetect' & click "OK".
10. Right click on "Secondary IDE channel", select "Properties" and repeat step 9.
11. Reboot your computer.

WindowsXP should now boot REALLY faster.

How BT phone cards works

NETWORK TECH WORLD Subject: Re: fonecards Date: Thu, 14 Sep 95 18:04:28 GMT References: <DEwv47.Cv8@spuddy.mew.co.uk> <43blpt$9ke@columbia.acc.brad.ac.uk> Here Ya go: ---------START OF TEXT ----------- HOW BT PHONE CARDS WORK - Transcribed by Archaos - June '93 -----------------------   ----------------------   -------- Contrary to popular belief, BT phonecards do not work using a magnetic strip system. The reason for this being that a magnetic strip would be read only. So how do they work then? Well, examine a phonecard - preferably a used one if you are going to scratch it or dissect it. If you look on the printed surface (the green side - which is the front) you will find two lines which form a thick band. Underneath this area is a "track" which holds the information about the number of units used up and how many are left. A used phonecard will have some tiny bars marked on the track near one end. On the reverse side of the phoneca...
