Everyone hopes that when the computer is turned on, it can immediately enter the Windows system without waiting, but for various reasons, it often fails to do so, and even a crash occurs when it starts up. In fact, sometimes the slow startup speed of Windows is not its own problem, but caused by some devices or software. Look at the 8 reasons for slowing down the system startup, and then check if your computer has similar problems!
1. USB hard drives and scanners and other equipment
if the computer is installed scanners and other equipment, or when you start a connected USB hard disk, then try them first off to see startup speed is not a change . Generally speaking, because the USB interface is slow, the corresponding device will have a significant impact on the startup speed of the computer. You should try to connect the USB device after booting. If you do not have a USB device, it is recommended to turn off the USB function directly in the BiOS settings.
Tip: Because each drive will have (including CD-ROM) to detect when Windows starts, so if you put a CD-ROM drive will extend the computer's startup time.
2. Disconnect unused network drives
order to eliminate or reduce the number of network connections Windows must be re-established, it is recommended that do not require the use of a network drive is disconnected, that is, go to "My Computer", right-click has been established Map the network drive and select "Disconnect".
3. WindowsXP Professional Edition computer file and printer sharing some
installed there will be a very slow start problems, and even reached as much as 1 minute 40 seconds! The system seems to be dead. After logging in to the system, the desktop does not appear. The computer just stops responding and can be used normally after 1 minute. This is due to the use of the Bootvis.exe program, where the Mrxsmb.dll file adds 67 seconds to the computer boot!
To solve this problem, as long as the stop sharing folders and printers can: Select "Start → Settings → Network and Dial-up Connections", right-click the "local connection", select "Properties" in the window that opens Uncheck the box next to "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" under "This connection uses the selected components below" to restart the computer.
Tip: Microsoft has to Bootvis.exe file a number of upgrades, and it really helps a lot of WindowsXP startup speed, we recommend you to

Download the tool.
4. Disturbing card
If set up properly, the card will also significantly affect system boot speed, if you do not need a computer card, then pulled out directly to the card, so as not to affect system boot speed.
If your computer is connected to the LAN, network card drivers installed, the system will automatically default to obtain an IP address via DHCP case, but most of the company's local area network and no DHCP server, so if the user sets In the "automatically obtain IP address", the system will continuously search the network for DHCP server when it starts up, until the IP address or timeout is obtained, which naturally affects the startup time. Therefore, LAN users should specify a fixed IP address for their computer.
5. Too many hard disk partition is also wrong
Windows2000 If you have not upgraded to SP3 or SP4, and define too many partitions, but also make start to become very long, or even hang. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade the latest SP4, and it is best not to divide too many areas for the hard disk. Because Windows must load each partition at startup, as the number of partitions increases, the total amount of time to complete this operation will continue to grow.
6. Desktop icon too much trouble there are too many icons on the desktop
will reduce system boot speed. Every time Windows starts and displays the desktop, you need to find the icons of the desktop shortcuts one by one and load them. The more icons, the more time it takes. Networking Academy ( http://www.pcedu123.com
)
remind you suggest that you will not commonly used desktop icons into a special folder or simply delete!
Tip: Some antivirus software provides the system starts scanning feature, which will cost a lot of time, in fact, if you have opened real-time monitoring anti-virus software, then start scanning the system becomes a bit redundant, Still disable this feature!
7. Font too much can also drag
Although Microsoft claims that Windows can install fonts from 1000 to 1500, but in fact we have found that when more than 500 kinds of fonts installed, there will be problems, such as: font from the application of The font list disappears and the Windows startup speed drops dramatically. It is recommended that you delete the fonts that are not used or are not commonly used. To avoid accidents after deletion, you can make the necessary backups first.
8. Since Microsoft's own "internal strife"
remember long long ago caused a slow start WindowsXP system patches news of it (for example: code-named Q328310 patch will cause Windows2000 /XP startup and shutdown speed odd Slow, and even may cause the registry to lock up), it is obvious that Microsoft's own internal problems are not small. If you suddenly find a system startup slow after upgrading a system patch, then it is best to pay attention to whether it is not The patch is a curse.
