Fresh for the weekend we now bring you an exclusive download once more. We have also checked the links for the previous XP updates you could download from us and have redirected them to available sources. The update available today is titled: Compile on a Windows XP-Based Computer Takes Longer to Complete Than on a Windows NT-based Computer. Important: In order to apply this update successfully you have to edit the registry. It is only one DWord value and we've created the appropriate reg file to save you the time and effort. Compile on a Windows XP-Based Computer Takes Longer to Complete Than on a Windows NT-based Computer Symptoms: When you try to compile a program on a Windows XP-based computer, it may take approximately 30% to 40% longer to complete than it did when the same computer hardware was Windows NT-based. Cause: This problem may occur if you compile a large program that has many files. Windows XP caches the files that you are compiling, and when the Windows cache limit is reached, Windows removes the files from the cache. When it does so, Windows may remove the files that are used frequently during the compilation. To use these files, you must cache them again. Recaching the files slows the compile process.
