Start
System Restore from the Command Line
System Restore is a
great feature in XP that lets you roll back the
operating system state to a particular point in time.
This can be a lifesaver when you install or delete
something that causes problems. However, what do you do
if things are so messed up that you can't access System
Restore through the graphical interface? KB article
304449 tells you how to start the System Restore tool
from the command prompt.

 TECH TIPS
Can
Microsoft include anti-malware programs in their
operating systems?
Many computer users
want Microsoft to build anti-spyware and anti-virus
functionality into Windows so they won't have to buy
third party programs. But will the governments that
fought Microsoft over including the Internet Explorer
browser as part of the operating system again try to
stop them from bundling? There's talk that the EU
anti-trust people may be planning to do just that. Read

How
to optimize disk space for recording to CD
For
best performance when burning data to a CD or DVD, you
should configure your computer to use a drive other than
the one on which Windows is installed for temporary
storage of the files during the write process. This
requires that you have multiple disks or partitions
available on the computer. Here's how to select a
different drive or partition on which to store the temp
files:
- Click Start | My Computer.
- Right click the drive icon that represents the
CD recording device.
- Click Properties.
- Click the Recording tab.
- In the drop down box, select a drive that has
at least 700 MB of free space.
- Click Apply and OK.

How
do I stop startup programs?
QUESTION:
How do I stop
certain programs from loading every time I reboot my
computer? I know I have done this, I just can't remember
how.
Thanks. - Jason S
ANSWER:
It depends
on how a particular program is being launched. First,
check the Startup folder (located in \Documents and
Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup on the
drive where you installed the operating system). Many of
the programs that launch automatically will be found
there. Simply right click and delete the shortcut (this
will not delete the program itself). If the program you
want to stop isn't there, you should also look in the
Startup folder for your user account (\Documents and
Settings\[your user name]\Start Menu\Programs\Startup).
If it's not there, either, it might be launching from
one of several Registry keys. If so, you'll need to edit
the Registry to remove the program from the appropriate
key. You can also view startup programs by running the
msconfig utility at the Run box (click the
Startup tab). For a complete discussion of where startup
programs load from and how to stop them, see:
