    You can make your computer startup faster if you

    1. type msconfig in the run box in windows located in the start menu.
    2. go to start up ... you can turn off most of the things only thing you wanna keep on is your antivirus...
    3. Also you kan turn off un need services ..
    4. the services and start up programs are just allocating memory when you start up your computer and make it slow...
    5. i did this and my computer starts up in couple seconds b4 took like over mins..

    Good Luck

    If u really want to your comp to boot up faster use bootvis created by microsoft.

    I used it and my comp booted up less than half the time it used to just go to http://www.microsoft.com and search for bootvis. You will see improvement for sure.

    bear with me folks. I want to show my sys config utility settings to ask advice about what can safely be unchecked. If you suggest unchecking something, pls explain the result or pro/con.

    Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel is also a useful utility for controlling what happens at startup

    Microsoft's bootvis DOES NOT change the way your system boots and WON'T improve speeds. It is a diagnostic tool that provides a visual display and log of the boot process so you can make comparisons with advertised performance and test various configurations.

    Creative reading is a bad thing!!!!!
    Bootvis DOES improve start up speeds,you need to trace> optimize system.I have used this for a while now and it cut about 5 seconds from my start up time on XP...so before you go shouting off check your facts
