MFT and NTFS Conversion Optimizations
For best performance, it is also important that the MFT be stored in a contiguous location on disk. The new /cvtarea flag for the Windows XP version of CONVERT (described later in this article) allows system manufacturers to implement a manufacturing process that results in a properly located contiguous MFT for NTFS volumes.

The following illustration compares the location of the MFT before, during, and after conversion of a FAT32 to NTFS volume.

Convert-friendly FAT32, ensuring the NTFS MFT is contiguous

convert X:/fs:ntfs

Replace X by the drive name (c or d or e)

For example... for drive C:\ convert c:/fs:ntfs

now select a drive (c or d or e.......) right-click and propreties, then clickon general and select "compress drive to save disk space" and press ok...no data will be damaged or removed.

Windows 7 god mode is a simple way to centralized access all the administrative options that are normally seen inside control panel into a newly created folder which can be placed anywhere inside the computer. Usually the  administrative options are seen scattered inside the control panel arranged in different categories and sub categories. 7 god mode arrange all the administrative options inside one single window. I find it much more neatly arranged and user friendly. It’s been a long time since I opened my control panel, ever since I started using this god mode.

Surprisingly, the procedure for enabling god mode is very simple. This hidden mode can be enabled in 7 and Vista.

How to enable Windows 7 god mode?

1) Create a new folder anywhere you like

2) Rename the folder to God Mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}. The name “God Mode” can be replaced by a name of your choice, but the remaining should be the same.

3) The default folder icon now changes to a Windows 7 god mode control panel icon.

4) Once you open the new created control panel icon, you can see all the administrative options arranged inside. There are almost 230 options inside mine.

Just double click. That's it , you can see all features of windows 7 ....
