Vista VERY slow for 10 minutes after startup.
TRY THIS msconfig - services - hide all microsoft services - uncheck these if they exist: xaudio, vongo, stllsvr,roxmediad89, installdriver table manager, cyberlink background, cyberlink task, Then click on boot tab -advanced options - number of processors 2 - maximum memory. If still doesnt work then may be something is wrong with your PREFETCH folder in x:\Windows\Prefetch I use System mechanic 8.xxx and it has an option of defragging such files that windows loads on startup... Doing that once in a while keeps boot time in check... try that one. -- alikazi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ alikazi's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/alikazi.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...nce/774361.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

Vista VERY slow for 10 minutes after startup.
I am having the same problem described here, but it takes more than a half-hour for my machine to reboot. The computer is barely a month old, and I'm thinking I will have to wipe the disk clean and start all over again. Thank you, Microsoft! -- VistaVictim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VistaVictim's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/vistavictim.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...nce/774361.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

I thought I'd monitor how long it takes me to reboot. One hour, and once rebooted the machine runs slow. Some programs, notably iTunes, freeze quickly. I've tried removing programs, and have tried a system restore to a couple weeks ago. Doesn't help. I'm going to try one more system restore back to the point when I bought the machine, and see if that will work. -- VistaVictim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VistaVictim's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/vistavictim.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...nce/774361.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

I had a client bring in a Gateway Laptop that was VERY slow on boot up after login. The culprit turned out to be the Dell printer driver. Removed the driver and the machine boots quickly. -- s6mills4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ s6mills4's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/205083.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...nce/774361.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
