Re: Computer Slow Boot Up[Solved]
Boggin:
My Win 7 boots up in 60 - 65 secs and I'm quite pleased with that - how long did it take normally for your XP to boot up ?
Samson:
I have an old machine with XP on it, 1.2GHz Celeron and 512MB RAM (100MHz), 40GB IDE HDD, boots to a working desktop in 30 seconds, so it can be done. I only have my AV running at start up. Uneeded services and hardware disabled.
Post a list of your start up items.
Also take a look at Shane's two programs. both are of benefit to machines with low resources.

Still waiting for a list of what programs you have running at start up......

Any auto updaters? Google, Adobe, MS etc....
Is quick/ fast boot enabled in your BIOS?
Is your HDD set as the first boot device?
Disabling unused hardware, such as unused ports can help too.
The aggregation of marginal gains and all that.
