Shutdown XP Faster
1) Start - Run - Regedit
Navigate to the following Registry key:
HKEY CURRENT USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Double click on the AutoEndTasks entry and replace the 0 with a 1 in the Value data text box

For the next two, if the dword value indicated does not exist, create it:

Double click on the WaitToKillAppTimeout entry in the right pane and change the Value data to 2000

Double click on the HungAppTimeout entry in the right pane and change the Value data to 1000

Reboot

If still having a problem, make the next change:

2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
Right-click on WaitToKillServiceTimeout and change it to 2000

NOTE: The lowest value Windows will recognize is 1000 (1 second)

ADVISORY: While rare, the "WaitToKillService" tweak can cause problems. If an application is in the process of saving data and the associated service is stopped prematurely, the data will not be saved and may be lost. (Tweak, Note and Advisory from Forum Admin)

Automatically Close Programs at Shutdown

When you shut down Windows, if you have any programs running you'll get a message box warning you that a program is still running. You then have to close the program and tell XP again to shut down. It's a fairly pointless warning—better yet would be if XP automatically killed the programs without issuing the warning. That way, you wouldn't get error messages and wouldn't have to close each individual application before shutting down your computer.

To have XP automatically close programs at shutdown, run the Registry Editor and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. Edit the AutoEndTasks key so that is has a value of 1. If the key doesn't exist, create it as a DWORD value and give it the value of 1. To disable it, either delete the key, or set the value to 0.

USB device not recognised

Sometimes it happens that you connect a USBdevice to your system and it shows "Unknown device". There may be several reasons for showing this.

Virus Infection:
First of all check that you system may not be infected with virus/spy ware/malware/adwarebecause sometimes they also create problem forUSB connectivity.

check USB connecting wires:
the front USB ports on your PC case may be misconnected. It's good to check the wire connections of USB port. The correct order of connection is Red, White, Green, and Black. only four wires are required per USB.

Device driver:
If windows is unable to recognize the device, try installing the driver yourself by inserting driver CD or windows CD. sometimes required drivers are not automatically installed on your system.

Power for device:
few devices require extra power to work properly, In this case if the USB is shared then it cannot provide required amount of power and device may not work.

Defective device:
You USB device may be defective. try using it on some other system.
