| What can be said about Windoze that hasn't been said a million times already? Unfortunately, it is here and it is going to stay. There is no way to avoid it. However, the pain it causes can be alleviated a tiny bit by installing some things provided, but not generally promoted, by Microsoft. |

|
Caps Lock and Ctrl key swapping
For Windoze 95 and Windoze 98, download the file
KEYREMAP.ZIP
For Windoze NT, 2000 and XP, you need only add a
Scancode Map
entry to the
00000000 00000000 Registry file to add this entry Key mapping will carry over into all DOS or command-prompt windows. |
|
Add command prompt to Explorer right-click menu
Download the proper registry file:
Windoze 95, Windoze 98 and Windoze ME
Add the keys to the registry by double-clicking on the file or use the text in the file as a model to manually add them. |
|
Cleaning up some stupid defaults
For Windoze XP, download and install TweakUI-XP.exe. It will do secret Microsoft things and put a link in the start menu.
For Windoze 98 and ME, download the file
TWEAKUI.ZIP
TWEAKUI works for all versions of Windoze. |

Improved FDISK.EXE for Windoze 98SE
The original FDISK can only handle disks up to 64 GB, due to the overflow of some 16-bit values. Microsoft has released a fixed version. Download the file FDISK.ZIP
Once downloaded, the file should be unzipped and copied to the following
directories: |

Faster defrags for Windoze 98
Windoze ME is the most despicable of all Windoze, but its DEFRAG.EXE is amazingly fast and works with Windoze 98. Download the file DEFRAG.ZIP Once downloaded, the file should be unzipped into c:\windows |
|
Selective startup for Windoze 2000
There is no MSCONFIG.EXE for Windoze 2000. Fortunately the version from Windoze XP works. Download the file MSCNFGXP.ZIP Once downloaded, the file should be unzipped into c:\winnt\system32 |
|
Turning off the Pentium serial number
Since this disease should not be allowed to spread, assembly source code is available for those wishing to expand the capabilities of the program or embed it into larger applications. This version is designed to be assembled with TASM 5, but can be easily modified for inline C or Delphi assembly. |
