"Are there ways to speed up your computer?" My sister asked me when I gave her my Windows laptop. Windows XP should be reinstalled because I cannot repair the corrupt registry, I told her.
?
Here are some of the errors we saw:
?
Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SOFTWARE
Stop: c0000218 Registry File Failure The registry cannot load the hive (file): \SystemRoot\System32\Config\SOFTWARE or its log or alternate
"How can you repair corrupt registry? She asked me. I said to her that I can do many things like reformat and reinstall Windows XP.
?
"But I don't like you to reformat this laptop. I have a lot of things here and I don't like to back up my things 'coz it takes so long. Is there a way to speed up your computer without reformatting," she said.
?
Are you having the same conversation with someone not as technical as you are? Or are you someone not very technical and can easily identify with this story? There is this one way to speed up your computer and the way you ?can do it is to fix the corrupt registry.
?
When your Windows XP fails it is commonly attributed to a corrupt registry. There are times that you can't even boot up with a corrupt registry. However, if you have a congested registry, you can still boot up and prevent a corrupt registry.
?
I searched around for solutions to fix a corrupt registry and I found some interesting things, to say the least I learned that I need not reformat my Windows install. I also learned about ARS or Automated recovery System. You will find the automated recovery system free with your Windows XP CD.
?
Your Windows XP CD have the specific files that you need to copy to a floppy. If you have already copied the said important files then you don't need to do this. Unfortunately there is no automated, one-click way to repair a corrupt registry. You really have to brush up on your DOS commands skill in the Recovery Console.
?
The best way you can avoid registry corruption is to fix invalid entries in your registry.
This will not only help you maintain the health of your PC but it will also speed it up significantly. As always, prevention is better than the cure. You can opt to maintain and keep your registry in tip top shape, or you can wait until it becomes a blob of spaghetti and explode into an useless gray mass of steel and silicon.
?
Maintain the consistency of your registry by getting a registry scanner that is right for your needs. Windows XP is like an old Volkswagen Beetle.? You need to maintain it in order to keep it in shape and ready for action. If you don't maintain your PC, it will surely be unreliable and conk out on you when you least expect it.?
