I just set up fresh install of XP. There is nothing there but the OS. Can anyone let me know of ways I could configure this so that it runs as efficiently as possible?
You can download the Windows XP PowerToys located in Microsoft Website
If you must get lot of efficently from your OS, get a copy of Norton SystemWorks 2004 Pro or later. They include a very reliable and very efficent disk defragmenter (Speed Disk) and (Disk Optimizer)
