Important PC Tips

TO INCREASE INTERNET BANDWIDTH...


just Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes.
This opens the group policy editor. Then go to:
Local Computer Policy
then Computer Configuration
then Administrative Templates then Network then QOS Packet Scheduler
and then to Limit Reservable Bandwidth.

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured,
but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e."By default, the Packet
Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a
connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."
So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO.
This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%......

Use system restore when you cannot boot your system:

If your system has failed to the point where you cannot access the
Windows GUI either through booting normally or through safe mode, you

may still have the chance to use the System Restore feature if you have
it enabled, by running it form the command prompt. To do this:

Restart your computer and press F8 after the POST screen to bring up
the Windows XP boot menu. Choose 'boot in safe mode with command

prompt.'

If your system gets to the command prompt successfully, type '%systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe' and then press enter. Follow the

onscreen instructions to restore your computer to a previous saved point.

of local or networked drives when you click My Computer.
