You have to know what you are doing, but you can speed up the boot time by removing unnecessary startup programs.
What is your VISTA boot time?
From cold start:
55 seconds to Password Screen -
10 seconds to Desktop -
20 seconds to Sidebar [3 gadgets]
85 seconds Total
Be honest, but I'm sure there are better out there.
Hi all,
Apologies if this has been done to death, but I can not find anything similar in the archives...
I am experiencing long delays (5 -7 minutes) when booting my PC now I have upgraded to Vista. The PC should be more than capable of running Vista, and a virus check and update of all drivers seems not to resolve the problem.
There are two interesting things that I have noted when checking the application event log.
1. Winlogon is reporting a significant delay (x2 messages):
"The winlogon notification subscriber is taking long time to handle the notification event (Logon)."
