Author: jaknox86

"Are there ways to speed up your computer?" My sister asked me when I gave her my Windows laptop. I told her that all I needed to do was to reinstall my Windows XP because I can't repair corrupt registry.

Here are some of the errors we saw:
?

"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? Fix your corrupt registry to speed up your computer.

It's common to find a corrupt registry really smoke your Windows install. 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. Your Windows XP CD includes this automated recovery system.

What you need to do is put in your Windows CD and copy some specific files 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.

You can avoid a corrupt registry by deleting orphaned and invalid registry entries.

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.

The registry cleaners that you choose must maintain the proper registry condition. 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.?
