Solve : slow start? |
|
Answer» I have Dell Dimension 8400 Microsoft Windows XP SERVICE pack 3 2 GB of Ram I have tried following: defregmented drive remove all temp file check start up programs But still it takes 5 to 6 min to start. Can you help? Open msconfig and on the general tab choose "selective startup" (uncheck all boxes) and reboot. How does the system boot?Yes I have tried that also but did not work, I am using Norton security 2009 software which is using some resources but not to make it 5 min. start up time.

Even my Norton security software was disable after update. I have to call Norton to re install security software. The technician told me that it happend with other people also.Norton's my first suspect on ANY slow machine...whether it's having issues or not.It seems to start as soon as the updates are installed and when the request for a restart is made the pc takes a very long time to load the desktop icons.....Didn't mean to hijack this.....just a little input.Yes Norton takes up lots of resources but I paid money for Norton and do not want to change. Do you think I should change to some other security software? I was using Norton 360 for a while but it created lots of problems so I uninstall 360 and install Norton security 2009 software. Good thing about this software is that the service calls are fre.Yeah, I agree, must be either some update, or Norton, or both. Nothing malicious there.There was another problem with Yahoo messenger, when you turn off computer the yahoo messenger want turn off. You have to manually turn off yaho messenger. So I uninstall yahoo messenger.Try this test.... Go Start>Run (Start Search in Vista), type in: msconfig Click OK (hit Enter in Vista). Click on Startup tab. Click Disable all IMPORTANT! In case of laptop, make sure, you do NOT disable any keyboard, or touchpad entries. Click Services tab. Put checkmark in Hide all Microsoft services Click Disable all. Click OK. Restart computer in Normal Mode. NOTE. If you use different firewall, than Windows firewall, turn Windows firewall on, just for this test, since your regular firewall won't be running. If you use Windows firewall, you're fine. Same problem?After getting all the important updates today for the Vista 64bit machine today the re-boot was well over 20 minutes... Your machine? Were there any updates today, or you just postponed them? |
