      All these tweaks still work. They are good for Windows XP-Windows 11. They will work on all versions of said operating systems. Thanks for the question and sorry about the grossly late reply.

    As for registry books, I do not know of any at present, but I will look into it. I learned most of them from looking up various tweaks back in the days of Win 2000/XP and just plain experimentation. I started doing it manually because I was sick of having to install 3rd party programs to edit specific keys and entries in Windows. But for most, it is often quicker and easier to go this route until they learn the sections of the registry and get a solid feel for it. Always make a system restore point prior to edits, just in case!

    The i7 Processor with the model number of 2630 has a L2 Cache memory of 1024 (4x256k). You would have to enter in the hexadecimal value of 400 to equal the decimal value of 1024. If entering this for the registry script in the description, please use the hexadecimal value of 400: hence the value would look "SecondLevelDataCache"=dword:00000400
    exactly as I set it in the description.
    When editing through the registry editor you can use either value as long as you select the correct value type.

    Loving this video man! I have wanted to make a full walkthrough like this for a while but never found the time. I like that you go over everything step by step even going as far as to start over from the Hkey folder so people can easily follow along, If you don't mind, I will share this video on my facebook for friends that ask me to walk them through these steps.

    A backwards tab is performed by holding the shift key while pressing the tab key. This is how you reverse tab. Thanks for watching!

  • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
    @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  11 лет назад

    Use the Hexadecimal value of 400 or the Decimal Value of 1024. Doing it as I did it on the video for the entry "SecondLevelDataCache" will work. Note that I did use the 1024 setting on my system.

    Setting a page file to be LARGER if you have more ram makes zero sense. It should be the reverse - the more actual ram you have, the less page file you need.
    I have 32 GB of ram. No way am I making a 48GB page file!

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  8 лет назад +1

      PowerStar004, Thank you for the comment. I am glad you had brought this up. First of all, I feel that you missed or possibly misunderstood something in the video. I did state that it is typically industry standard to use 1.5 times the size of your installed RAM, as is true when most computers run on less than stellar specs. And I did state that it is better to have the initial pagefile.sys size start and end at the same size value. However, this is usually for the purpose of reducing disk fragmentation, no matter the multiplier, as if you allow Windows to manage it, you will have excessive disk fragmentation and be not much better off. By no means am I recommending a 48GB Pagefile. But you DO still need a pagefile, as Windows and certain programs require it. As you have an abnormally high number of installed RAM (compared to the typical specs of some of the systems I get messaged about from time to time), one would figure that the pagefile.sys should open and max out at no larger than 4GB.
      At the time that this was made, most systems did not have this capacity of installed RAM, having a range between 512MB - 8GB installed memory typically. Even with higher installed RAM quantities, you should use the default settings if you game, as you are a gamer and use this ram in emulators (I looked your user name up). The reason I state this is because Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 will still need the pagefile for it's own usage as most modern games and some emulators. Windows will page by default, no matter the quantity you have. I know. You could have 100TB of RAM and it would still need a pagefile of a recommended quantity. But if you really want to pull a smart move and save that hard drive - check out a tool called Radeon RAMDISK, and create a pagefile in a Ramdisk. Free version offers up to a 4GB RAMDisk and with proper configuration, can be setup to load at Windows startup. You can use this RamDrive as though it were a hard drive and set a pagefile on it. The benefits of using RAM instead of HDD for your pagefile is a no brainer. With a purchased version, you can get up to 12GB for a Ramdrive and with proper configuration, you could be sitting on a 11GB pagefile that will load up at Windows startup, and that will save that hard drive of yours. If you want more details on the configuration, message me and I will see what I can do to assist in the setup.

    You will also find that these tweaks will also apply to Windows 8 and 8.1 :)

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  10 лет назад

      Virtual memory will work with all versions of Windows. Because Windows uses a paging file (pagefile.sys) and the system requires a paging file, it is very helpful to configure it to your individual system, lest you increase the fragmentation rate of your pagefile.sys and decrease overall system performance. Having the system use a static size for the pagefile.sys will decrease seek and access times on the hard drive of the system. The more fragmented the pagefile is, the longer it takes for the system to access and find the fragments on the drive will add up to unneccessary seconds being spent in this process. Setting the pagefile to static size will alleviate this issue. Remember, the rule of thumb is to do 1.5 times the amount of installed memory. Installed memory in GB must be multiplied by 1024 to be correctly converted into a number the registry can use. The registry will use MB rather than GB. If you have 1 GB of Ram for your system, for example, then setting the registry entry for 1536 (1024 x 1.5) would be ideal. For systems that have over 8 GB. then use the 1 x method, as an excessive pagefile is unneccessary because you have plenty of RAM to cover the memory requirements of the system.

    Hello Daniel!
    First of all, thanks a lot for your great and very helpful video. I want some help with the cache thing..
    I know everything about my processor (i7 2670QM 2.2GHz 6MB Smart Cache), and also about the calculations. My problem is that my l2 and l3 cache memory is shared, so what numbers am I supposed to type?
    Level 2 Cache: 4 x 256 KB 8-way set associative caches
    Level 3 cache: 6 MB 12-way set associative shared cache

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  10 лет назад

      Nick,your L2 cache is 1024 KB so the decimal value would be the same. Make sure to highlight the decimal option and input the value pf 1024. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

Not intending to censor posts, but if you have a valid post, I will respond. But linking to other sites to bolster your affilate program will not remain in posts. I would rather leave space for the posts that actual youtubers that are seeking help use.

    After a recent driver update an annoying window keeps popping up related to ATI Technologies. In the registry under HKEY current user,software,microsoft,windows,current version, run, is an entry in the data area (right pane) C:\Program files\ATI Technologies\ATI-ACE\Core-Static\CLIStatic.exe Will placing qoutes around this solve the above problem? If so, howdo I do it? If not, what next to try?

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  11 лет назад

      I would go directly to the ATI/AMD website and attempt to download the latest driver again and delete the registry entry. But to answer your question: Yes, placing quotation marks before the "C:\... and at the end of the ....exe". This is done because it is a string value and string values do not allow for spaces without the quotation marks to let the system know, when it is reading the registry, that the spaces do not delineate a command modifier. This is inherent in all programming, and is a principle of programming. The spaces would cause an error because the command interpreter would read the space as a termination of the command or location and the part following would be read as command modifiers or another location. Being that this would be an error either way because the parts before the space are not a command and would be an "unrecognised" command. Because neither are being read correctly, the quotes make it read it as a group and spaces are allowed and the important factor is the "\" which marks the folder switches and the location is read correctly. Make sure to add modifiers after the command string following the last quotation mark. Add a space and sometimes you can add " -minimized. This does not always work because the program being executed must allow this, not only the registry command interpreter reading the entry. Regarding drivers: If it is not broken, do not fix it. Drivers are one of those funny and finicky pieces of software that can cause your system to have many errors or not even start at all! Using reliable drivers from the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) is often recommended. Not to say keep your drivers up to date, but always make a system restore point prior to making any update to the registry and/or drivers. I hope this helps.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  11 лет назад

      Also, to mention it, you can also follow the string manually to confirm the file exists as it may have been deleted or re/moved.

    Hi Buddy, All I wanted was removing an office 2016 download slowing my PC. I clicked on delete on the microsoft folder from the registry, I then quickly realised that I needed to only delete the office folder, I then quickly clicked cancelled . I could see all other folders, all of sudden I cant launch the explorer shortcut, I rebooted, windows load Fine and nothing happen just a black screen. I did F12 run the diagnostics, I get a green tick on everything (system, cables, OS boot path, Hard drive, CD room, Video card, process fan, motherboard,, system management, memory ). This is Dell Optiplex 780 small tower running windows 7.
    Tried F8/safemode with command prompt still black screen. . Any suggestions?

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  7 лет назад

      Mamadou Amadou sorry to tell you, but you may need to reinstall your operating system. This is one of the reasons why I recommend people making a backup of the registry before making any changes to it. This way, you can restore your system much easier then having to go to the lengthier system reinstall process. A lengthier attempt to repair it however would entail the following: if you remember the registry key or folder you deleted, you can probably get a copy of it from another working system by having them make a backup of their registry, and use it in lieu of your own. Your system wouldn't be bricked and it would lie to get data off your hard drive. You would probably still need a reinstall of the operating system. Another option you could try would be to use an in place upgrade which would require you two run your Windows installation disc, providing it is an upgrade version, if not I'm sure you could find one online, and use it to upgrade your system. Maybe using the windows anniversary update ISO would work best because it would not require you to do as many updates and it would basically restore your system to working order. I will know that all your programs that you have personally installed will not work out the gate. This would give you the framework to reinstall those programs and your data has a very good chance of staying in place, but there's always the risk of data loss. Best bet is to have it hooked up to another system backup your data and reinstall. If it was me I'd probably go and try a half a dozen other lengthy methods, but this forum is hardly the place for that scope of a project.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  7 лет назад

      Mamadou Amadou before you consider system brick and requiring a reinstall I wanted to have you test something out. Press control shift Escape and if your task manager comes up you have a chance to fix it. If not then my prior solution would apply. The point is you have to very least access registry editor one more time to fix this even if it's a hack job. Assuming that the task manager comes up, you can go to run a program which should be underneath the file command at above the main display of the charts. Type in regedit.EXE and press enter. Provided it comes up you can go down to the section in this video that shows you where to remove programs and a add in explorer.exe as a start-up item that should bring up your desktop and make things a world easier for you. To do that you'd have to go down to high key local machine, software Microsoft, Windows, current version, run. Then you'd have to add in new string value called "Explorer" and you'd have to hit enter and then put in:"%systemdrive%\Windows\explorer.exe" as the value. If done correctly, your desktop should come up and allow you to backup data locally before reinstalling or in-place upgrading it. If it does not work, leave another message here and I will try to assist.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  7 лет назад

      vellis dcosta I was a Gateway user, but since then I've moved on to another system. But to solve your problem, you would be best to try and download an ISO of your restore set or order a restore set from the manufacturer which you can do with any system. I hate how they like to hide everything on the hard drive and not give people physical discs. Their main Saving Grace right here is that they do offer them on their website for a fee of course. There's not much else I can do for you other than recommend that, which in all honesty is the best option. So you have to go to the Gateway website and type in your model number and look for ReStore set and you'd have to order it. Shouldn't run more than $30 on average. I've had to order them a couple times in the past for some of my clients and once for myself. I wish you good luck with this. Thank you for the comment.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  Год назад +1

      I'm sorry I don't get on here that often. What these tweaks will help with will be the general shutdown and startup and operation of your operating system. I don't know which operating system you're running ie which version of Windows you are currently operating. Without this information to be quite difficult to ascertain what you would be hoping to achieve. These tweaks are designed to minimize background operations and make running a Windows system less painful than it would be out of default. It is meant to reduce defragmentation and reduce either CPU or memory usage during the normal course of operations. You have a real nice processor and these tweaks will still make an improvement to your operating system. Just a note that windows, by default as I had stated in my prior videos and this one I believe, does not utilize the l2 cash that is typically available on the dies of most processors. This is a setting that must be enabled manually. There may be third-party programs out there that may be able to adjust these things but there's nothing that I have seen in recent years.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  5 лет назад

      Well you can disable indexing, which can be tricky, but it's doable. There are plenty of videos online that will walk you through this. Using a better defragmenter, I use ultimate defrag 4, will allow you to place your most-used files at the fastest part of your drive and we'll give you a performance improvement. A more lengthier way to speed up your system would require you to reinstall Windows, but you would have to change the sector size to 64 k, which will eat up a little bit of your hard drive space, a little more than the current default settings, and you will lose file compression in the process, the files will get less fragmented and are more likely to stay in one piece which will improve performance. Check it out black vipers Windows services, a site that specializes in what services you can safely disable in Windows do the services. MSC file. He walks through it entirely. You can simply Google him and windows services and you will find what you were looking for.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  8 лет назад +2

      Mohamed, thanks for the question:
      ClearPageFile Registry key when set to "0" means that Windows will not clear the pagefile at system shutdown. Being essentially a Boolian arguement, setting it to "1" would force Windows to clear the pagefile and in turn, delete it and force Windows to create a new one at next startup. This is good for security and for when you need to perform some key maintainance tasks on your computer. Enabling it will slow down system shutdown and startup.

    • @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt
      @MeneSvatyDanielSchmitt  8 лет назад

      Your Processor boasts an 8 Meg L2 Cache. This would translate to 8192 Decimal value for the "SecondLevelDataCache" key. Other things that could be affecting your FPS could be: Outdated drivers, Game settings set too high for your CPU/GPU combination (Scaling back the setting a little does go a long way and will improve FPS at the expense of graphics resolution), Direct X not being updated to the most recent release possible, Your Hard Drive (yes, I know - what does this have to do with it? A slower hard drive with a slow 5600 RPM will perform slower than one running at 7200 or 10K.), RAM - Having the maximum installed RAM or if less than max, running the Fastest RAM your system board can allow. Do not mix your slower ram with your faster gaming RAM as all will be clocked back to the speed of the slowest stick in the bunch.
