BOOT DEFRAGMENT IN WINDOWS XP
A very important feature in Microsoft Windows XP is the ability to do a boot Defragment.
This basically means that all boot files are placed next to each other on the disk drive to allow for faster booting.
By default this option is enabled but some upgrades could disable this feature, to enable it follow the steps below:
~~:: PROCESS ::~~
1. Start Regedit.
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfrg\BootOptimizeFunction
3. Select Enable from the list on the right.
4. Right on it and select Modify.
5. Change the value to Y to enable and N to disable.
6. Reboot / Restart your computer.

I am currently using a commercial defragmenter on my drives set to defragment in the 'real time' mode. It seems to be much faster and more thorough in the defrag. Not a huge fan of the Windows defragger for various reasons (slow, needs to be scheduled, doesnt defrag system files)
