Default super prefetch causing slow system

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Se ssion Manager\Memory
Management\PrefetchParameters]
"BootId"=dword:00000046
"BaseTime"=dword:0ca25fa5
"VideoInitTime"=dword:0000000f
"EnableSuperfetch"=dword:00000001
"EnablePrefetcher"=dword:00000003
"EnableBootTrace"=dword:00000000


Richard,

Thanks for this information. When I searched the Internet just to verify the
approach, this article:

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...iles-in-vista/

seems to contridict what you wrote. I'd like to implement this change, can
you verify for me that your method is correct and the one in the article is
wrong?

Thanks

If you were to read all the way down to the last entry on that page you will
see that someone else has already taken the author to task for his
misinformation.

Some contradiction, please do research this. practicing some googlefu, some
sites recommend. The values for dword are different than what you posted.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\Memory
Management\PrefetchParameters]
"EnableSuperfetch"=dword:00000002
"EnablePrefetcher"=dword:00000001

0=Off
1=Prefetch boot process
2=Application Prefetch
3=Prefetch both
