I grabbed this tweak from another thread hoping for a response if at all possible.
The post below lists 0, 1, 2, or 3 as options for the prefetch value. When I looked at my current registry value it is set to 5?? Anyone know why this may be or if it is OK? Should I set it to 3 or does it make a difference? Thanks in advance...

hello, everyone... I've got a few tweaks and info to add to this great thread...
1. link to Laurens "Prefetcher"-tweak

This is an unique technique for XP, which could improve the performance significantly by tweaking the prefetcher. Recommended hardware: PIII 800 or higher, 512M RAM or more.
1. run "regedit";
2. goto [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Cur
rentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\Memory Management\PrefetchParameters\
EnablePrefetcher];
3. Set the value to either 0-Disable, 1-App launch prefetch, 2-Boot Prefetch, 3-Both ("3" is recommended).
4. reboot.
It will decrease the boot time but double and increase the performance of your XP. Try it!
