BAD IDEA. A crude and ugly hack.
A more appropriate name for this tweak would be “Boot Win XP Slowly”, because that is exactly what it will do. Steps 1-5 will create a script that will delete the “NTOSBOOT-B00DFAAD.pf” file on every shutdown. This file is used to guide the boot prefetch operation that takes place during the moving bar animation. If the file is deleted this can not take place and the animation will take very little time. This is what convinces many people that the boot process is faster. Don’t be fooled.
The files that were normally loaded during prefetch must be loaded. If this can not be done by prefetch, it will be done later on during the boot sequence. But now it will be done much less efficiently and take longer. If the boot process is timed with a stop-watch it will be clearly seen that it is slower.
Steps 6-10 will remove a small delay during boot. It will also disable a second hard drive or CD if present. So beware!
For proper operation of the prefetch system it essential that the Task Scheduler service be enabled and set to Automatic. Some uninformed sources have irresponsibly advised that this service may be safely disabled. Doing so will cripple both boot and application launch times.
