How To Customise Your start Button :-

First you need a tool called "Resource Hacker". This free program allows you to
change resources in any .exe file such as "Explorer.exe", which includes the [Start]
button's Label. You can visit Download.com and search there for "Resource
Hacker".
After you download it, follow the guide here:

Step 1:
A - Run "Resource Hacker" and open the file "%windir%\Explorer.exe".
B - You see a Tree of all Resources in this file, expand the "String Table"
C - Find the "start" (look for the place 37->1033 on the "String Table") and replace
it with your own text. then press the [Compile Script] button.
D - Save "Explorer.exe" as "MyStart.exe" DONT save it as Explorer.exe, do "save
as.." and give it a new name.
E - Quit "Resource Hacker".

Step 2:

A - Click on the [Start] button and choose the "Run..." item from the start menu.
(Or use the shortcut key WinKey+R)
B - Type "RegEdit" in the Run "Dialog Box". And then press the [Ok] buton to run
the "Registry Editor" program.
C - Go to: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\WindowsNT\Curren
tVersion\Winlogon" and find the "Shell" property.
D - Replace value of the "Shell" property to "MyStart.exe".
E - Quit "Registry Editor".
F - Restart your system.

Note about Registry Editor:

if you did not find the key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\WindowsNT\Curren
tVersion\Winlogon", you can search the Registry for the "Explorer.exe", to do this
use the Edit Menu | Find Next (Ctrl+F).

Create One-Click Shutdown and Reboot Shortcuts:-

First, create a shortcut on your desktop by right-clicking on the desktop, choosing

New, and then choosing Shortcut. The Create Shortcut Wizard appears. In the box
asking for the location of the shortcut, type shutdown. After you create the shortcut,
double-clicking on it will shut down your PC.

But you can do much more with a shutdown shortcut than merely shut down your
PC. You can add any combination of several switches to do extra duty, like this:

shutdown -r -t 01 -c "Rebooting your PC"

Double-clicking on that shortcut will reboot your PC after a one-second delay and
display the message "Rebooting your PC." The shutdown command includes a
variety of switches you can use to customize it. Table 1-3 lists all of them and
describes their use.

I use this technique to create two shutdown shortcuts on my desktop—one for

turning off my PC, and one for rebooting. Here are the ones I use:
shutdown -s -t 03 -c "Bye Bye m8!"
shutdown -r -t 03 -c "Ill be back m8 wink.gif!"

Switch
What it does

-s
Shuts down the PC.

-l
Logs off the current user.

-t nn
Indicates the duration of delay, in seconds, before performing the action.

-c "messagetext"
Displays a message in the System Shutdown window. A maximum of 127 characters
can be used. The message must be enclosed in quotation marks.

-f
Forces any running applications to shut down.

-r
Reboots the PC.

Make Mp3 Files Smaller Without Losing Quality :-

If you don't already have a copy of MusicMatch Jukebox, download one from

the free version works just fine for converting files

2. open music matchbox and click file convert files
3. in the bottom right hand corner called 'destination type' change it to mp3 pro.
4.you can edit the bitrate but the higher the bitrate the bigger the size
5. choose the songs you want to convert and click start

msg=InputBox("Enter your text","Talk it")
Set sapi=CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
sapi.Speak msg

2. Save the file as tts.vbs or other name but it must end with .vbs extension. It will
create a VBScript File. Be sure that 'All files' is selected on 'Save as type'.

3. After you double click on it, input the text and press OK. The script will start
talking.

How to improve on shutdown time ? Close apps automatically & quickly at
shutdown tip:

Open Registry by going to START-RUN and typing REGEDIT. Navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\CONTROL PANEL\DESKTOP and look for
AutoEndTasks. On my computer default value is 0. Change it to 1. Thats all.
Further more you can reduce the time it takes for Windows to issue kill directive to
all active/hung applications.

In doing this only constraint that you should make sure exists is that
HungAppTimeout is greater than WaitToKillAppTimeout. Change the values of
WaitToKillAppTimeout to say 3500 (since default value for HungAppTimeout 5000
and for WaitToKillAppTimeout is 20000)

Add a Safe Mode option to the Boot menu in Windows XP:-

Follow these steps to add a Safe Mode option to the Boot menu.

system into Safe Mode more than once. However, doing so can be a tiresome
process. When the Boot menu appears, you must press [F8], and then you must
select Safe Mode from yet another menu.
Wouldn't it be nice if Safe Mode were available from the Boot menu? In fact, it's
relatively easy to add a Safe Mode option to the Boot menu.
Here's how.

1. Press [Windows][Break] to open the System Properties dialog box.

2. On the Advanced tab, click the Settings button in the Startup And Recovery
section.
3. In the System Startup section, click the Edit button.
4. When the Boot.ini file opens in Notepad, locate the line that ends with the
/fastdetect switch.
5. Highlight and copy that line and paste it in the line below.
6. Change the section on the line that reads WINDOWS="Mcft Windows XP
Professional" to WINDOWS="Safe Mode."
7. Add the following to the end of the line:
/safeboot:minimal /sos /bootlog

Recycle Bin Edits:

Playing with the recycle bin. Why not make the icon context menu act like other
icon context menus.
Add rename to the menu:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20
Add delete to the menu:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:60,01,00,20
Add rename and delete to the menu:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:70,01,00,20
Restore the recycle bin to Windows defaults including un-deleting the icon after
deletion:
Restore the icon.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\Windows\CurrentVe
rsion\explorer
\Desktop\NameSpace\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
@="Recycle Bin"
Reset Windows defaults.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,00,20
Other edits to the recycle bin icon:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,01,20 ... standard shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,02,20 ... a different shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,04,20 ... and still another shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,08,20 ... make it look disabled (like it's been cut)

For Windows XP and 2000 also edit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mcft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

For Windows ME also edit HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\

CLSID{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

Add\delete programs to run every time Windows starts:

You can start or stop programs from executing at bootup by adding or deleting
them to/from the run Keys in the Registry. Windows loads programs to start in the
following order; Program listed in the Local Machine hive, then the Current User
hive, then theWin.ini Run= and Load = lines. then finally programs in your Start Up
folder.
To add or remove programs in the Registry
1.Open RegEdit
2.Go to the desired Key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\RunServices
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Mcft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Mcft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\RunServices
3. Add a new String Value and name it anything you like
4. For the value data, enter the path and executable for the program you want to
run.
By adding the value to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive instead allows the
program to start only when that user is logged on.
If you add the value to the RunOnce key the program will run once and be removed
from the key by Windows.
