Make your Vista to run faster in your UMPC
A few days ago I found a thread at OrigamiProject forum with a some registry keys that according to the author could speed up Vista a little bit in our devices.
Here are the two keys that needs to be changed:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\PrefetchParameters\
Change EnableSuperfetch from 3 to 0.
And:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
Change DisablePagingExecutive from 0 to 1.
You will notice a good improvement in Outlook 2007 and other applications. If you want to know what every key does and some tests result, check this thread.
Warning: Do no apply the second trick unless you have at least 1Gb of RAM.
Update: James Kendrick tested this hack just reported that all his issue with HDD trashing without reason has disappeared after applying this hack. In another hand, I just prepared a VBS Script to apply this hack.
Updated 2: Kevin is reporting that when the page excutive is disabled his Zune skips 20 seconds before the end of each song.

I probably wouldn't try that last one unless you had 1G of RAM.
And who is thinking about to install Vista in less than 1Gb of RAM. ;)
What does it mean if you don't have this key?
I have HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet
but no session manager. Just Control, Enum, Hardware Profiles and Services.

Look inside of Control.
Ctitanic have you applied this Registry hack? If so have you notice any improvements? which UMP Device do you have? Thanks
HG
yes, I do. Check this thread.
Q1
this tip slow down everything. Don't do that!
funb, because you think so, or because you test it.
The fact is that the Superfetch works if you have a machine with a lot of RAM, at least 2 GB of it. This page is about UMPC if you have not noticed. UMPC are sold with at most 1 GB, and my tests and the tests of many other people indicate that with that amount of RAM superfetch just does not do any good.
