Change Drive Letters in Windows XP

When you add drives to your computer, such as an extra hard drive, a CD drive, or a storage device that corresponds to a drive, Windows automatically assigns letters to the drives. However, this assignment might not suit your system; for example, you might have mapped a network drive to the same letter that Windows assigns to a new drive. When you want to change drive letters, follow these steps: · Right-click My Computer, and then click Manage. · Under Computer Management, click Disk Management. In the right pane, you'll see your drives listed. CD-ROM drives are listed at the bottom of the pane. · Right-click the drive or device you want to change, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths. · Click Change, click Assign the following drive letter, click the drive letter you want to assign, and then click OK. Do Not Highlight Newly Installed Programs Tired of that annoying little window that pops up to tell you that new software is installed? If it gets in

MODEM UN CAPPING

How to uncap? "Uncapping" refers to the concept of somehow lifting the bandwidth cap many cable modem service providers (MSO's) impose. Some users want to do this in order to improve the speed of their cable modem (CM), but this is obviously theft of service and may have seriously unpleasant consequences. This article is my attempt at giving a snapshot of the world of uncapping DOCSIS 1.0 CM's as it looks in early 2002. I strongly discourage users from stealing bandwidth. At the same time I strongly recommend the MSO's and cable modem vendors to proactively and constantly improve security. The Myths FUCKUPC - "There once was a hack for the Lancity cable modems. A disgruntled client of Chello Netherlands created a program to remove the upstream limitation. Instead of 16Kb/s he had over 300Kb/s upstream. The hack doesn't work anymore." says a well known user as a comment in the Q&A section here on Cable-Modems.Org. According to other sources

Although you should expect to wait for a few moments, sometimes Windows XP seems to boot rather slowly. In fact, you may notice that over a period of time the PC that used to roar to life seems a bit sluggish instead. Fortunately, you can perform several techniques that help Windows XP get the bootup speed you want. This Article explores how to put these techniques to work. Stopping Unneeded Startup Services ! Along with the core operating system and programs that Windows XP runs when it starts, there is also a host of services involved. Many of these services are necessary for Windows XP to operate correctly. However, many of them are for features in Windows XP that you may not use at all. You can peruse the services and disable any service that you do not want to run. The fewer services that run, the more quickl

Hacking from User to administrator mode

Refer to the other articles on this wiki for the same topic as windows seems to have fixed this bug.. still u can browse for educational purpose u know why is it a "user" account because it lacks come service layer than that in "administrator" account Using simple command line tools on a machine running Windows XP we will obtain system level privileges, and run the entire explorer process (Desktop), and all processes that run from it have system privileges. The system run level is higher than administrator, and has full control of the operating system and it’s kernel. On many machines this can be exploited even with the guest account. At the time I’m publishing this, I have been unable to find any other mention of people running an entire desktop as system, although I have seen some articles regarding the SYSTEM command prompt. Local privilege escalation is useful on any system that a hacker may compromise; the system account allows for several other things

Here, you'll find "Hide these specified drives from My Computer" & "Prevent access to drives from My Computer".

"Hide" will remove the icon so that user won't see it, but the drive can still be accessed by using Start > Run and keying in the drive letter. Under this setting, after you click the radio button next to "Enable", you'll see several options. Choose the one you want to apply, for example, Restrict A an

REPAIR DON'T FORMAT YOUR WINDOWS

If some day your XP refuses to run or strat up properly or the OS choice doesn't appear you don't always need to format & re-install XP. I suggest you do a dry run of Windows Recovery Console.

Faster Booting Windows

One of the main causes of XP booting slowly is is the method of loading drivers. Windows versions prior to XP loaded sequentially (one by one), but since XP, it has been done concurrently (at the same time), causing a slow-down. This information is written to file C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch\Layout.ini. While creating this file, XP does a partial defragmentation of files listed in Layout.ini to make them available in one contiguous area of hard drive, allowing them to load faster. Windows Regular Defragmenter cannot defragment this File for this you need a manual defragment utility from Microsoft called BootVis, available at ( http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=664 ). Extract the ZIP file & run BootVis.exe(after defragmenting your hard disk). In BootVis Go to File . New . Next Boot + Drivers Trace. It will prompt you for repetitions (reboots & trace). Let it go with defaults. After reboot, BootVis starts automatically & provides various reports. Also with ind

To change the clock speed first you need to open your BIOS which can be accesed by pressing "Delete" key in your keyboard immediately after pressing the power button. Note:- Some times system administraters just add a password to BIOS. If it asks for password you need to hack it by opening your cabinet & look for a cell battery on your motherboard just remove it & start your pc again. Note:- Ifyou have Orignal Intel Motherboard that is it displays Intel Inside Logo when booting up then this hack is not for you Intel already disables it. OK! all done just access the BIOS & look for a option called "CPU Clock". Now all you need is to increase the number slowly & save settings & start pc it the system is stable &
