[rockers3000]

@Dman1330 I've tried it and it does not work on windows 7

[delcastilloian]

Thumbs up if you look at the comments first before watching this^_^

[Dman1330]

Does it work on Windows 7?

[GirlsensePrincess]

wow i jumped 1 k in the air when i heard the fkin song ! -,-

[excriminal1]

this is 2 years old and this wont work in modern systems.. its already obsolete .. windows 8 is at beta testing and this is an xp explanation.. your probably still trying to figure out vista

[ComputerWhack]

@excriminal1 Two years old... I have Windows 8 now and am doing tutorials on it.

[excriminal1]

@ComputerWhack it only took you a month to reply... 

[kobalov1]

@ComputerWhack XD

[fu7676]

[compro226]

ONLY WINDOWS OS FOR COMMERCIAL USE HAVE gpedit.msc IF URS IS HOME EDITION . TABLET PC EDITION IT MAY NT WORK

[Xc0mrade]

@ThePrayingMantis08 haha you are pretty dumb

[MultiMarecar]

Thumbs up if Bootup time on yours computer is fastest then his after all this shit :D

PS: dont take "shit" seriously xD

[adig54]

i dont have "primary ide... and secondary ide..." any advice?

[PeterFarve]

Thank God for the mute feature!!!

[ashjohnsonsen]

does it work with windows 7 ultimate?

[MegaBarteq]

I don't have "gpedit.msc" I've got windows xp

HELP!!

[deejayextee]

@MegaBarteq i had the same problem too . . you can download it on

mediafire(DOT)com / ?55fd2hz7c3bkqlr

remove the spaces on the slash and replace the (DOT) with a dot.

have fun using it!

[The59vip]

@ThePrayingMantis08 do you take drugs??o___0

[masongalbraith]

not buyin it

[Lightningfox360]

N00b, if this made your computer boot up time 200% faster that would be the same as 3 x faster.

50% faster would be 1.5 x faster

100% would be 2 x faster

200% would be 3 times faster

[QajsProductions]

@Lightningfox360 He probably meant 200% it's original speed.

[Princeduclare]

i've got home premium so "gpedit.msc" does not exist..any alternatives??

[robin9080]

gpedit.msc is not available for windows 7 :(

[Godkiller124]

@robin9080 yeah it is...i have windows 7 ultimate and i have gpedit.msc

[robin9080]

i'm going to make a system restore point first !!! ;p

[darkjs93]

work for windows 7?

[lukasm14]

@darkjs93 no

[MrViCtOr223]

Nice! better than i thought!!



[Ankush1435]

Tried it for the first time and am happy with the results

[hog242]

p.s it's not 200% better its more like 47% better (just saying no argument)

[hog242]

sorry 53%

[ComputerWhack]

@hog242 Haha nice Calculation.

[benjamina222]

i dont get the point. xp and seven boot very fast, only reason to make a video like this is for the unfortunate vista users who dont know how to install os's and replace vista.

[Mags1722]

i started doing this and then i got an assload of viruses, lucky norton blocked em

[ComputerWhack]

@Mags1722 Wtd u talking about, How is any of these files a virus 0.0

[Mags1722]

dunno, but seconds later, norton kept saying that it was blocking trojans and some other viruses i never heard of.

[ComputerWhack]

@Mags1722 Woah, Very odd. But I can 100% Assure you none of these files are viruses.

[kingdomheart2soldier]

yo at step #7,8,9

i have 2 primary IDE c hannels and 2 secondary IDE channels

is that bad? and which one i change the settings to? o.o HELPZ

[mandai2]

You shouldn't need to change these type of settings. You might not even be using an IDE drive.

[d789b]

Man I tried to fix my two sisters computers, but theirs is XP and that gpedit will not work on xp. I guess it only works on windows vista and windows 7.

[ComputerWhack]

@d789b The OS in the video is Windows XP

[ComputerWhack]

I ment that as in , its never been put on youtube yet.

[Ballplayer300th]

haha.. ok then

[wwasucks]

@Ballplayer300th XD lol

[coolcrazytechiedude]

does this work for/with windows 7 cuz i have windows 7 and xp so does it work on both of these pm me

[Mrsalman2]

Hey man Whats your theme I THINK U USED Windows xp in this tutorial

[ComputerWhack]

Actually this script deletes the files in the prefetch.

[mandai2]

How much percent does that add to the speedup time?

[AmatZelo]

hey can i do this without using administrator acc?

[mandai2]

nope you need admin rights for it to work

[forestgriffin95]

hey dude is this only for XP vista because i have a vista?

[joshuax88]

does this only work on xp?

[ComputerWhack]

Wow, ur a dumbass. WindowsPRfetch!!! If you didnt know prefetch is a file sotred with some junk that windows cleans out. But using a script is way faster thus makes your computer faster. get your facts straight dumbass

[youzuko]

what kind of windows do u use??

its look cool..

^_^

[sauliu1]

i think its windows 7

[PecanWithTheSheep]

"del c:windowsprefetch tosboot-*.* /q"

mm. yes...it ''speeds" up doesn't it? don't you guys/gurlz see the ''del'' part?

[ComputerWhack]

Well actually when I made this vid I didnt really fully know wut I was doing. but after thinking Del Windowsprefetch is fine. I think they are using the scripts delete win prefetch instead of Windows's way of deleting it.

Prefetch is a file which stores some stuff u want to delete :P Windows does it for you but here there is a shutdown script to do it. It is aster than Windows's way.

So it sfine

[mandai2]

yes its meant to clear out all files starting with tosboot- . in the windowsprefetch tosboot folder. Not that doing this would realistically gain any speed boost.

[13804]

when i type gpedit it doesnt work

[classiqueheart]

type gpedit.msc

[mandai2]

gpedit.msc isn't included in the home versions of xp or vista

[altu892]

can someone tell me what is his theme called?

[ComputerWhack]

Or you could just ask me? Google "Windows vista live visual style for xp".

[aqa722]

what theme are you using?

it's kool... if u got a link for it plz let me know

thx 4 the vid.

[PraiseJesus2010]

no offense but it looks like it would delete your bootup

[ComputerWhack]

Nope

[d4rksektor]

I'm curious as to what exactly this does besides make your PC boot faster. I suppose a better question would be: How does this make your PC boot faster?

[mandai2]

Well by deleting prefetch files you probably won't gain much speed unless there are a lot of programs you got rid of recently.

The IDE fix seems sort of irrelivent as you could be using a SCSI or SATA drive (which use different settings).

[magican121]

i Couldnt find gpedit.. what do i do at that part..?

[tutorialsandhacks]

go to start-> then run -> then type gpedit

[mandai2]

gpedit.msc will only work in the pro versions of windows.

[MsTech411]

metro station :D

[khuizz]

what about xp home edition?xp home edition don't have group policy

[terence193]

i created the batch file .....

when i opened the gpedit.msc

i opened computer configuration but there was no scripts tab .....

well i dont know what to do :/

[TheYasinatorTVpage]

does it work wiv vista??

[ComputerWhack]

no, or maybe. Im gonna have to try that.

[vanityscreamreacords]

Actually it works For All Xp Versions....Gpedit Was Probably Deleted By An uninstaller .... Its Pretty common in Xp.

[mandai2]

lol never had that happen to me before

[DJMax1991]

Windows cannot find 'gpedit.msc'

im on xp home?

[NuMb3r1PuNjAbI94]

no its only on win xp pro.

[PsychoDevon]

whats the song?

ive heard it but dont remember the name and artist

[ComputerWhack]

In the beginning.

Control

Metro Station

[standardshadow]

where do you get the theme ill subscribe if you tell me

[okmedmig]

So the trick is 1) to delete the prefetch boot information at every shutdown and 2) to disable IDE auto detection for positions where no IDE drive is installed?

Comments:

I. What's the relation between prefetching and IDE auto detection?

II. Why not just disable (boot) prefetching all together, so you won't have to delete a bunch of files at every shutdown?

III. You're missing three backslash signs (\). The batch command ought to be: "del c:\windows\prefetch\tosboot-*.­* /q"

[BrandonMiller9999]

i agree, and whats the difference between backslash (\) and forward slash (/) ? iv'e always wondered that but nobody really knows! =(

[ComputerWhack]

See if this helps. Windows uses the "\" to separate directories:

C:\Program Files\Some Game\Game.exe

On any other system (Unix, Mac OS, FreeBSD, online) this is done with "/":

/usr/share/games/some_game/gam­e.bin

The directory "/" is your root directory; like the parent directory where everything else is stored. You can think of it as C:\ in Windows, except that there is no A:\ D:\ or E:\, everything is just mounted somewhere on the filesystem.

[ComputerWhack]

In those systems, the "\" character is instead used (when in a shell like Bash) to represent an escape character, like in most programming languages. So, for example if I foolishly named the game's directory "some same" instead of "some_game", I can still CD to it but I have to tell the shell that I actually mean to use a space character:

/usr/share/games/some\ game/game.bin

(that's slash, followed by a single space)

Of course, this is the same as using quotes,

[ComputerWhack]

"/usr/share/games/some game/game.bin"

Generally speaking, you shouldn't have to use "\" anywhere on your Ubuntu system as a regular user.

[google23556]

Don't forget URL's use "/" too.

[ComputerWhack]

Lol something I found on the web.

[LyokoRocks08]

i meant

Here's (here is)

stars instead of stars and i think i got it now haha

[LyokoRocks08]

thats pretty kewl im testing it in a virtual machine before so i make sure i do it right =) and what video recording software do you use because its awesome in Quality =) heres my comment i just rated 5 starts and hey guess what i hit Subscribe LOL =)

[KINGV3NOM]

is a guide from someone who cant do math worth risking your computer for, when you can get maybe a 20 second improvement?

[ComputerWhack]

I dont see you knowing anything about computers you retard. And yes some people want improvement. So just stfu dude. and wtf does math have to do with computers.

[KINGV3NOM]

i know more about computers than you, i guarantee it 100%!

[ComputerWhack]

Just because you can hack games? Wow your cool.

[KINGV3NOM]

you're*

But I can do much more than simple games...those are just for fun.

I understand you're 12 but a little common sense and logical thinking wouldn't hurt.

[terence193]

well then you can show us what you know :D

[IWEBProductions]

Why would you say that maths has nothing to do with computers? Computers are based around maths, and therefore when you're going to college with a major in a computing field you'll have to do a lot of maths

[nafyboy13]

awesome help!!

[raghavchaudhary99]

this was very helpful

[KINGV3NOM]

You're an idiot, you didn't even get 200% but guarantee it 100%? lol

[ComputerWhack]

omg I guarantee this 100% works. dumbass

[mandai2]

Tried it. Diddn't make any noticible difference on my test PC.

[jamesmartin0613]

the only channels i got is primary and secondary channel on the secondary channel on the secondary channel device 0 & 1have the automatic detection button none of them are greyed out

[ComputerWhack]

Check both of them out. if it doesnt look like the video then it probably doesn't work. Do you have Xp Home?

[jamesmartin0613]

no i have pro

[ComputerWhack]

Maybe you can take a pic of your drivers and show me on tinypic.

[jamesmartin0613]

hey on the secondary channel all of the auto detection button is not greyed device 0 is not greyed and device 1 is not greyed what will i do? please reply please

[ComputerWhack]

Um u got another channel? See if those are not greyed... PM me

[lolplspls]

Wow thak you very much much i love you thank you

[lVlazi]

Erm i cant run the gpedit.msc for some reason.

[ComputerWhack]

Are you administrator?

[lVlazi]

Yes i am.

[ComputerWhack]

What does it say?

[lVlazi]

Erm does this work for Windows XP home Edition?

[mandai2]

gpedit.msc won't but the rest should

[TBHLblog]

older than the internets

also, it really only works with XP and IDE drives, and if you have ONE device on each IDE channel

[jayremix]

so this only works with windows xp PRO not HOME??

[mandai2]

just the gpedit.msc bit

[ComputerWhack]

Sure no Problem it will be up in about 10 Hours.

[ComputerWhack]

What? Did you try this tutorial? If you did Doesn't it rock!
