  • EVERYONE, this disables prefetch and yes will boot your pc faster, but nothing gets loaded, so all programs take longer to start up.....don't bother. Prefetch is one of the best things about booting up.

    As for hibernating, it isn't booting up so the memory gradually degrades through fragmentation and all the temp files build up.

    This is BS.

  • From wikipedia, Prefetcher values: * 0 = Disabled * 1 = Application launch prefetching enabled * 2 = Boot prefetching enabled * 3 = Applaunch and Boot enabled (Optimal and Default)

    So, setting it to 5, probably just disables the prefetched.. who knows?

  • it work,thank for sharing.

  • No work!!!!!!!!!

  • There is another way to boot your computer faster. When you click start then turn off computer then hit the H on your keyboard. It will force your computer to hibernate. The next time it boots it will return right back where you left off, even if a web page is up. Everything is saved where you left off and boots faster than a normal boot up.

  • The best trick ever.

    The others are not working
