In this section we talk about Disk Defragmentation and Windows XP's
Cache.
Download this Cacheman v5.50 http://rapidshare.com/files/92597270/Cacheman.v5.50.rar
Cacheman enhances a PC computers operating
system performance by reducing slow paging file usage and making
more memory available. Designed with built-in wizards that even the
novice computer user can use, Cacheman allows you to optimize your
operating systems Disk Cache, Name & Path Cache, CD-Rom Cache,
and Icon Cache with a few simple clicks.
NT Registry Optimizer
Registry Optimization for Windows NT/2000/2003/XP/Vista
Similar to Windows 9x/Me, the registry files in an NT-based system
can become fragmented over time, occupying more space on your
hard disk than necessary and decreasing overall performance. You
should use the NTREGOPT utility regularly, but especially after
installing or uninstalling a program, to minimize the size of the registry
files and optimize registry access. The program works by recreating
each registry hive "from scratch", thus removing any slack space that
may be left from previously modified or deleted keys.

Tweaking CableDSL
The following tweaks and modifications, are the ones I personally
perform to my Cable connection after fresh installing windows.
Note-This Guide works with Dsl and Cable Connections ONLY!
The first thing I like to do is:
1. Run over to Control Panel
2. Click Network Connections
3. "Right Click" Local Area Connection (Your primary connection)
Then UNcheck:
-"Client for Microsoft Networks"
-"File and Printer Sharing For Microsoft Networks"
-"QoS Packet Scheduler"

Tweaking Windows Setting to Increase Cable/Dsl Speed
After I get my Tcp nicely patched, I move on and Tweak my windows xp registry settings to unleash my cable connection's real potential.
Dont be worried if I said "I tweak my registry", You wont have to
manually edit it because i use a great free tool called TCP Optimizer thats does everything in one click of a mouse!
