Default Use Prefetch

Aloha. About 2 years ago, when I got this computer (Core 2, XP, SP3) I
disabled Prefetch. Now I'd like to use it, but I don't know how to get it
going again. I don't even remember how I disabled it. Can anyone tell me how
to restart Prefetch?
Many thanks.

Double click on the "EnablePrefetcher" entry.
Change the value from 0 (Disable) to 3 (Enable)
Exit regedit and reboot your PC.
