I found this tip at a forum. I felt it very useful, therefore I would like to share with you at here.

In order to speed up your hard disk speed, we need to configure a special buffer in the computer's memory. This will enable it to better deal with interrupts made from the disk.

How to do?

Step 1: Key in SYSEDIT.EXE in the Run command.

Step 2: A System Configuration Editor windows will appear. Please looking for the SYSTEM.INI file.

Step 3: Try to find a line with text [386enh].

Step 4: Enter a blank line after the [386enh] and key in Irq14=4096 (note: case sensitive).

Step 5: Click on the File menu, then choose Save.

Step 6: Finally, reboot your PC. Done. Yahoooooo.

Additional info: The most speed improvement is visible with IDE drives, however there are reports that this tweak also does good for SCSI disks.

Hope the above tip is useful to you . Have a nice day.
