Another way to easily restart Windows is to create an icon on your desktop that does it for you. Start by opening Notepad and type @EXIT (no punctuation, of course). Save this document under the name RESTART.BAT or whatever name suits you, just don't forget the .BAT extension. Save it in your Windows folder. Close Notepad, open Explorer, shrink Explorer's window to less-than-full size, find Restart in the Windows directory, right-click and drag it to your desktop, and choose Create Shortcut(s) Here from the menu that appears when you release the right mouse button. This puts an MS-DOS icon on your desktop called Shortcut to Restart.bat. Right-click the icon and choose Properties. Click on the Program tab and check the Close on Exit box. Click on the Advanced button; you're presented with two options, "MS-DOS Mode" and "Warn Before Entering MS-DOS Mode." The first option should be selected; the second one should not. Click the OK button twice. From now on, you can restart Windows simply by double-clicking on the icon.

@achacko: Yet another instance of a solution ripped without due credit to the original source?

Congratulations! You just earned a shiny new "On A Warning" badge.

why dont u use msconfig and services.msc to reduce the start up items.

plus regularly do a disk cleanup, scan disk and disk defrag. u should see an improved performance and speed.

What has this got to do with Win XP reboot or a shortcut to reboot?

I doubt whether you have understood the query.
