Windows ME quick shutdown

GPMlore

Level D
Hey guys, I am facing lot of issues while shutting down my system (Windows ME) as I get a dialog saying program not responding. I want to know if there is any way to implement the 'autoendtask' registry hack in Windows ME similar to XP? I am using both ME and XP. Please help me in solving this issue...Thanks in advance :hap2:

Hey man, if forgot to mention 1 thing! :P, all that i do on my PIII is possible because of my superfast Sparkle GeForce FX 5500 256Mb :hap2:. I have played GTA: Vice City, San Andreas and UT 2004 at 1024x768 :clap: in direct 3d :hap2:.

Btw, any suggestions to hide the end program dialog box? :ashamed:

I still remember when i was studying BE, I bought component cable 15 meters in length and soldered the pins, same for audio cable. We didnt purchased any CD player. When ever we want to watch movie i take the tv out from the pc and connect to TV av in and audio in. It was the joy that time.

I dont know what to say..nothing has been failed for the past 9 years except HDD. I gave a athlon x2 for my dad, hence the system goes to my sister's place to continue his duty.
 
Hey guys, this is not a show-off thread! :S, anyways I got the solution. Here it is:

Open registry (type regedit in Run box)
then go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop", in the right side pane create a new string value called "AutoEndTasks" without quotes and set its value to 1. To disable change value to zero...thats it :hap2:
