I am not changing the repairs. The repairs do more to do the job better, if it slows down so be it. On my system I barley had a difference of about 45 sec.
Again speed of the hard drive and the CPU matter most.
Your CPU is slow and you dont have a lot of memory. And if your hard drive is older and slower all 3 of those things will make the repairs take a while for you. :wink:
Your on a old computer, anything ever added to the repairs you are going to notice.

Good information, but in the old versions there is no problem with the repair option above since the last version came out!
This was all on the same computer I'm on it!
How do I speed up the hard drive and CPU?
And my computer is 3 years-old ..Not bad, right?

I know this. But I do not run anything so until I think the virus hit my system and has done change system settings'!
It is okay?
Willy2:
- Install more memory if possible. Price of 2nd hand memory for XP systems has come down dramatically.
- Install Cleanmem.

The program reduces memory usage and that reduces disk I/O and leads to a better overall system performance. Helps to speed up WR as well because WR needs to process A LOT OF files on your harddisk.
- Increase overall speed of Windows by switching off A LOT OF visual gimmicks/features. (GOOGLE it).
- Install Service Pack 3 for XP.
- Run Simple System Tweaker.

Could you rewrite your previous post ? I didn't quite understand what you were trying to say.
Willy2:
I know that "Repair WMI" (for XP) executes three commands that each take a significant amount of time. And those 3 commands are executed twice. No wonder it takes "some time" to run "Repair WMI". Perhaps it's possible to speed up that repair.
Shane:
A new hard drive would help a LOT. If your drive is dieing or has slowed down, which they do as they age, then when the repairs are trying to read and work with so many files you are at the limit of how fast the drive and get the information it is asking for.
I finally decided to buy myself a SSD drive, I got the one that can do 500mb/s read and writes vs the normal 25 to 100 mb/s of normal working drives. Boot up from turning ont he computer to the desktop should take less than 4 sec now :-D
