Pagefiles: How To Reduce The Alloted Size Of Memory To Files?

Jul 23, 2005

I have 500 megs of RAM and each of my 6 logical drives indicate that the
system has allocated 785 megs to the pagefile. That is huge. I can't
imagine why any drive would need that much, and since I am runing out of
space on some drives I would like to drastically reduce the size of the
files - maybe to 300 megs. Would that be OK, or would it be unadvisable.

Unable To Re-size The Taskbar?

May 22, 2008

I recently had to re-install WXP on my computer. The task bar at the bottom of the screen is the normal size (if there is a normal) but when I actived Quick Launch so icons would appear in the taskbar, it doubled in size. The icons adjacent to the Start button are lined up horizantally but the icons in the system try are in groups. I have tried re-sizing the taskbar by placing the cursor on the upper edge where a up and down arrow appears but I cannot drag the taskbar down to make it smaller. I deactivated quick launch, locked the task bar and then re-actived quick launch but it still increases is size. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue?

Size Of The Paging File - Change Initial Size

Apr 21, 2008

I heard that the paging file should always be 1.5x the amount of RAM that is available on the machine. My initial size of the paging file is set to around 2GB and I was wondering if I should change the initial size to 3GB or put it to 'System managed size'?

Desktop Size - Monitor Screen Size.

Dec 23, 2009

I am using an elderly 3M LCD projection panel on an overhead prjector for big screen Tv, driven by XP pro SP3. The panel has no controls for vertical/horizontal size and whatever monitor is used, an OS desktop fills the screen by default. I can resize the window for the TV viewing program in the normal way,just filling my projection screen, but the XP desktop is far too large.Does anyone know of a way to change the physical size of the desktop (including the taskbar) so that it sits in the LCD screen with a blank border all around, or maybe even make it custom resizeable as in a program window ( without changing the resolution)?

Pro Taskbar With "Group Similar Taskbar Buttons?

Jul 24, 2005

With XP Pro SP2, I enable "Group similar taskbar buttons". I generally have my taskbar stretched 2 to 3 rows even so. Sometimes, when I have a lot of windows open, and the similar taskbar buttons group and stack themselves, so 1 button contains 2 or 3 open tasks, I can't get any action out of the buttons that represent multiple open tasks.

Any of the taskbar buttons that represent a single open task are fine. But any buttons that represent multiple open tasks don't respond. I have to do Alt -
Tab to bring a task to the front, if it's one of the tasks on a button that represents a group. Or I can go to Taskbar Properties, and deselect "Group similar taskbar buttons".

Truncated Window Designations In Taskbar - Taskbar Grouping On

Jan 21, 2008

I've just switched from 98 to XP. I find now that the window designations in the taskbar for my *browser windows only* are severely and unaccountably truncated. My browser is IE6. Even if there's only one window open, if it's a browser window, only one letter will display. Other windows will properly display the full name. I've turned taskbar grouping on and off with no change. I've also run the SFC utility, with no change. There is no such problem in my Win98 machine, and my security settings (and all other settings) are the same. I don't wish to upgrade to IE7.

Taskbar Fails At NOT Group Similar Taskbar Buttons

Sep 23, 2009

I want to see all task bar buttons and not have them grouped. XP Taskbar menu offers check "Group similar taskbar buttons." I leave this unchecked, then Apply, then OK. XP still groups the similar buttons (e.g., Word doc1, Word doc2, etc.) instead of having these ungrouped.

Reduce CPU Usage?

Dec 12, 2005

I Have a 2yr old Dell Dimension 4550 with win xp, pentium 2.4g processor, 256meg ram, 60gig hd, cd burner,& dvd rom. It got to a point it would take 20 min. to boot up, then run at a snails pace. I ran spybot, adaware, and McAfee virus scan and no change. I ran hijack this and found no problems there. I installed new hd and ide cable and fresh install of xp and no change. from there I changed out the ram and no change. I disconected all the cd, dvd, floppy, removed the modem, sound card, reinstalled xp with no drivers for the cards, still no change. At this point I replaced the power supply, removed from another running computer. Each time I made a change I checked in task manager and found the CPU usage to be 20 to 30% with no programs running. the tasks that are consuming the CPU are the taskmgr.exe and explorer.exe. at this point I even upgraded the bios and still no change. Does anyone have any other ideas.

Reduce Sound Acceleration

May 24, 2006

I would like to create a script of some sort that can be run by a regular user and that can reduce the sound acceleration like in the Sound tab of dxdiag. An older game my kids run needs lower acceleration to function properly. A second script to reset it would be helpful too. I don't want to give my kids admin priv or have to set it myself before and after each gaming session.

Steps To Reduce The Clutter

Dec 1, 2006

Can anyone give me the steps to reduce all the clutter I have on my PC down to ONE edition of Windows XP (Prof) and get rid of all the other stuff? The situation on one of my computers (my wife's) is that there are several (3 anyway) editions/installations of WinXP Home on this computer and, if left to boot up on its own will go to the top one on the list, which is NOT the edition required, and of course it asks for Activation and all that stuff, which, when the correct edition is loaded, is not necessary. I would like to eliminate all but the second edition noted, safely and permanently. How do I go about this safely?

Need To Drastically Reduce Running Processes

Dec 2, 2007

I officially give up my stubborn dogged quest to learn, comprehend, and apply everything I should know about what's running on my PC - what each process does, what program(s) it/they originate in, what other services depend upon them, or whether or not I'll be able to brush my teeth if it/they isn't/aren't running. I don't want to know that rolling back a certain driver or manually installing a .dll file will enable some non-essential process to convert anti-aliased vector lines to maximized battery life, or how some helper file will allow QuickTime to covertly play the contents of Huge Jackman's iPod on my Fisher Price boom box. I concede that I'm incapable of grasping neither the logic (if there is any) nor the specifics relative to the phenomena that is computer science.

Unable To Reduce 100% CPU Usage? Question.

Jun 23, 2009

I went through several pages of 100% CPU usage threads but did come across anything that seemed relevant to this particular problem.
I am attempting to help my Pastors Dell notebook. It is running XP.
His wife said that it locks up when she tries to access the Internet.
They have two accounts set up on it.
After bringing it home to see if I could figure it out I immediately noticed that her account (Sylvia) was extremely slow. I started Task Manager and it showed that CPU usage was at a constant 100% with the only foreground process being Task Manager.
The other account (Ted) was the original account and when logging on to it the CPU usage is about 5% or so (with an occasional momentary spike of up to about 50%) with the only foreground process being the Task Manager.
I set up an account, James, and with no customization done to this account and only the Task Manager running in the foreground the CPU is at a constant 100%.
The roess Explorer log from both Ted and James is here: http://luannsplace.com/James/Computer/ProcessExplorerResults.html
A system inventory using Belarc Advisor is here:
I used Windows Update and it said that all necessary updates were in place.
If anyone could steer me in the right direction to get this problem corrected we would greatly appreciate it.
What is puzzling is that the 100% CPU usage is only on accounts created after the original account (Ted) was created.

Unable To Reduce 100% CPU Usage? Question.

Jul 23, 2007

I've never been overly impressed with the speed but over the months it has got slower and slower and is now virtually unusable unless you've got hours to waste.
It takes forever to load up, forever to open a program and forever to complete a task. Ask it to open two programs and you can just forget it.

File Size - Size On Disk

May 1, 2006

When I right click a file to view it's properties there are two different values shown: one for file "size" and the other for "size on disk". The second value is always larger. Could someone please explain what the difference is because I'm in the process of allocating space for backed up user data on a network share and I need to multiply the average file size by the number of users to get an estimate of how much space to allocate to that share.
