Bootvis
Bootvis hasn't been supported for quite while. The original is no longer
available so it's unlikely a Vista version will be developed. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca "Diamontina Cocktail" wrote in message ...

Bootvis
I do have one for XP. Works well for that when a system needs boot
improvement. Sad to see it isn't around any longer. Hope Vista doesn't suffer degraded boot performance like XP can. "Kerry Brown" *a*m wrote in message ...

Bootvis
My understanding was that it was removed because of the numerous problems
caused by users who did not know how to properly use the tool. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Diamontina Cocktail" wrote in message ...

Bootvis
Yep I can believe that. Some fool causes a fire with fireworks over here and
they ban them completely in this state. Everyone suffers in order to stop one fool. "Jupiter Jones [MVP]" wrote in message ...

In Vista, you mean? Certainly not the case in XP.

Bootvis
Vista has numerous diagnostic tools built in.
one of the MANY Event items are for BOOT timings. also the self diagnostic will tell you about problems during boot. "Diamontina Cocktail" wrote in message ...

Bootvis
Bootvis was created for use by developers and not "general use" - actual benefits required changes in coding. Main function with XP was the representation of the boot process and, despite impressions, did little during the boot adjustment phase.

Main function with XP was the representation of the boot process and, despite impressions, did little during the boot adjustment phase. Your conclusion is incorrect. A completely defragmented system on a reasonably new machine could take a long time to boot depending on what the user had done. One such system, 6 months old and a 3.2Ghz P4 socket 775 was taking up to 15 minutes to boot. Bootvis brought it back to normal. That was the most outstanding example I had presented to me and fixed but there were improvements over most machines in boot performance.
