-How to Share a Folder in Windows Systems If you have a home network or inside a corporate network, you can share your files with other computers in your house or share office documents with your co-workers.
-Having a shared folder is convenient for file exchange.
-You don’t need to bring a blank CD or a flash drive to another computer to copy the files you need and bring back to your computer.
-In order for you to set up a shared folder, you need to have a home workgoup network setup or under the same domain inside a corporate.
-You can follow these steps to setup a sharing folder.
-Step 1 Create a new folder, you can place inside the C drive, or you can put in on your desktop or inside your “My Documents” folder.
-Step 2 Now select the folder and right click on it, choose “Properties”.
-The folder properties window opens up.
-Step 3 On the top of the window, click on “Sharing” tab.
-And select the radio button “Share this folder”. Then enter a name for the share name.
-Step 4 On the same window, click on “Permission” and the permission window will come up.
-The default group or user names is Everyone, of course you can add or remove another group or user by clicking the “Add” and “Remove” buttons. Step 5 In the permissions box, give proper permissions to each group or user: “Read” means to grant the user to read only, while “Change” grant to edit and “Full Control” means you grant access to read, edit and delete files within the shared folder.

2.Speed Up SATA Hard Drives&USB Drives In Windows Vista Window Vista has built in support for SATA and external drives, but they seem to be slow because the advanced write cache features aren’t automatically activated.
-With just few steps you can enable them and get a much faster response.
-First you need to go to the Device Manager which you can go directly by just typing device in the start menu search box or just type in devmgmt.msc in command line.
-Now open the Disk drives section and right click on your hard drive.
-Now click on the Policies tab and you’ll find this dialog box: Now click the checkbox for Enable advanced performance, and you are done.
-Write caching isn’t enabled by default as removing devices directly without using the “Safely remove removable device”may lose your data, so be cautious when enabling this options. But enabling this option also when speeding up performance significantly when writing to the disk.
-Now select the external drive and double click it to open up the properties screen.
-Then just change the setting to “Optimize for performance” and hit OK to continue.
-You’ll have to reboot for all the settings to take effect.
-Next time you boot into Windows Vista you’ll see faster bootup times and better disk writing performance.
