Shutdown XP Faster

Like previous versions of windows, it takes long time to restart or

shutdown windows XP when the "Exit Windows" sound is enabled.

To solve this problem you must disable this useless sound.

· Click Start button.

· Go to settings > Control Panel > Sound, Speech and Audio

devices> Sounds and AudioDevices > Sounds.

· Then under program events and windows menu click on

"Exit Windows" sub-menu and highlight it. Now from sounds

you can select, choose "none" and then click Apply and OK.

Now you should see some improvements when shutting down

your system.
