Security log on this system is full in Windows XP

Sometimes when we want to login windows XP there is a notification the security log on this system is full. Only Administrator can log on to fix the problem. The other user cannot logon to the windows, as picture below.



To solve this problem, we need user Administrator and Password (for this computer)to logon windows. Then Right click at My Computer > Manage, there is display Computer Management. Click System Tools > Event Viewer.



Then right click on Security > Clear all Events.


Choose No, if there is notification to save.

And then the system will clear all logs at event viewer.
Restart the computer and try to login with other user name.
Lets see the result is success.

Speed UP Computer's StartUP in Windows XP

Sometimes we experience that our computer takes a long time to get start up, and need times to open Windows program. The cause is, that there are many application programs in our computer which running together.

Please be noted that start up is nothing but the programs that load automatically when windows running to start up and makes the PC is slow during start.
Most of us do not want many of the programs to load during the start.

Actually two ways to clear speed up computer startup:
First, from Start Menu -> click on All programs -> click on startup
Second, from Start Menu click on Run and write msconfig and then press Enter.



A Dialog box System Configuration Utility opens.
Click on Startup tab, Now click on Disable all or select your choice for your convenience then Press Ok




A new dialog box opens, to let effect take place Click on Restart
After restarting, you will see that the start up of your computer is better than before.
Goodluck and try it.
