Windows Support

Longhorn's most useful Speed Boost feature 'leaked' as XP tweak: I found this Windows tip on this Internet. They claim it works, but I haven't tired it yet. If you want to test it yourself back-up first!
" Microsoft claims Longhorn will be, faster!
The only reason why its faster is they added a superfetch feature to the prefetcher. If you look at the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\Prefetcher
you will notice in Windows
EnablePrefetcher = 3 and you will notice in windows longhorn
EnableSuperfetch = 1
Well, guess what? You can put the EnableSuperfetch = 1 in Windows and get the same speed.
Microsoft just added a feature that was already there in xp."
(Test at your own risk! - and back-up before you make changes.)
