And the insanity continues. I'll pad these entries with helpful tips from the newsletter. At least, I think they're helpful. Some people have noticed that Windows XP can be slow when trying to access a folder full of media files (i.e. AVI / MPEG / DAT). Although I can't find anything on Microsoft's Web site that addresses this problem, it was still brought to our attention that there is a fix. Now, this fix will require you to edit your registry so I will STRONGLY refer you to Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - Q322755 for the steps on how to back up your registry (REMEMBER: registry tweaking can be tricky). Click the Start button, go to the Run command, type “Regedit,” and click OK. Once inside the Registry Editor, click Edit, then Find. In the “Find What” field, type in “{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}” (without the quotes) and click “Find Next.” Once the Registry Editor finds this folder, you will see that inside it is a folder named InProcServer32. Click on this folder, and delete both registry keys inside. Now, just exit the Registry Editor and reboot. With any luck, this will get rid of this sluggishness for you.
