Hi Friends.. After seeing your warm response for the blog and for the particular section of windows xp tips and tweaks which generated the most traffic for the blog as made a concern for me that i should come with some thing additional on that part…
So, here it is you might have come through some of them and some may be a new island to explore around So enjoy and have happy computing.. 
Windows command prompt
The Microsoft Windows command prompt is an invaluable tool that can be used in conjunction with Windows. Below are some helpful shortcuts and tips that can be used to improve your abilities while in the command prompt.
1. Press the up arrow key to scroll through all previously typed commands at the prompt. This is helpful when you need to type long commands in more than once.
2. Pres the tab key to auto-complete the names of directories or files. For example, at C:\ type: "cd wi", press tab and the command prompt should complete WINDOWS as the name of the directory.
3. Familiarize yourself with the top MS-DOS commands and each of their available switches.
Windows Selective Startup
Improve overall system performance and boot time and get rid of programs you don’t want running in the background by choosing to do a Selective Startup in msconfig.
1. Click Start, Run and type: msconfig and press enter.
2. In the System Configuration Utility click the Startup tab.
3. Uncheck programs you do not wish to load each time your computer starts. Once done click ok and restart the computer. After the computer boots back into Windows you will receive a prompt about Windows being in a selective startup. Check the box to not receive the prompt and click ok.
Saving Windows XP and later searches
Save your frequent Windows XP and later version searches for future use by following the below steps.
1. Open the search and enter the search queries you wish to save. For example, you could save a search to find any remix mp3 files by entering: *remix*.mp3 in the all or part of name box.
2. Once the values have been entered test the search and allow you to save the search.
3. In the Search Results window click File and then Save Search.
4. Finally, browse to the location you wish for this file to be saved and name the file with a .fnd extension.
After completing these steps you’ll be able to quickly perform a search by simply double-clicking the file.
