    Slow shutdown

    I saw it somewhere in the forums about a command in the registry for the timeout for services shutting down faster. Can anyone give me some info on it. My XP takes too long to shut down

    VIA KT333 boards post feedback

    Reliability...... who cares about benchmarks. Little nickle and dime operations maybe.... You put Xeons when you have to have servers up Athlons when you can afford to rebuild one, from time to time.

  12. I'd only go through that much trouble if you are deploying windows xp in a corporate environment. Otherwise wait for SP1 to come out then incorporate it into the installation. http://www.ntcompatible.com/faq232.shtml Just sub XP stuff in there to do it

    XP is way better. More stable. Just make sure you stay away from VIa chipsets, and you should be fine with either OS

    What we did in Korea, is only give them domain access. So if the network is down they cannot log in at all. We even had a logon script that set thier background everytime they logged on. It was funny cause some of the Koreans would change stuff on Windows 98 even format and reinstall to undo what I did. So i would format it in NTFS and leave it blank. THey never figured it out hehe.

    Hey Brian F. You ever worked as a Domain Admin for the DOD? YOur damn right you have to restrict them. Or instead of taking time to upgrade machines and rollout security packages you are unistalling ****ing Bonzai Buddy, or webshots. then again thats a government system. THo eitherway the employee doesn't own it.

    You had to use the words packard bell.. we had this old lady that brought a 6 year old packard bell with Windows 3.11, that couldnt connect to our internet service. The modem had crapped out and I popped the case open and there was literaly 3 inches of dust. I had to take a shop vac, it looked like a rats nest. ANyways after that joyful experience I get to install one isa sound card and one isa modem, if you remember the combo PB cards. Then to top it all off installing them in DOS. What joy.......
