Shutting down Windows XP Faster

Hi all,

                     Sometimes the users could be irritated while system takes plenty of time to shut down the computer. At the backend the processor needs to kill down the active processors. We can manually change the set time factor for processor kill time and so the shut down time can be minimised. Let me give out the steps to handle the process. It could be possible by making changes in the registry settings. Do follows the steps to do shut down quicker.

• Go  to the Registry Editor(by ‘regedit’ from the run command)

• Select the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SYSTEM->CurrentControlSet->Control from the left pane

• Select the ‘WaitToKillServiceTimeout’ from the right pane.

• Change the value field from ‘2000′ to ‘200′

                      And you could feel now the Windows XP shutting down quicker.
