was just bought. The boot time can be turned on in 20 seconds. Now it is getting slower and slower, it takes more than 1 minute. Is it computer poisoning, or is the computer configuration too low?
In fact, bad luck may be the above reasons, but most of them may be accumulated slowly in the process of using the computer every day. Here are seven examples. Common causes of slower notebook startup.
1, network settings
If you often need to connect your laptop to the LAN, after installing the network card driver, by default the system will automatically obtain the IP address through DHCP, but most companies have no DHCP on the LAN Server, so if the user is set to "automatically obtain the IP address", the system will continuously search the network for the DHCP server when it starts up, until the IP address or timeout is obtained, the startup time is naturally increased, so the LAN user is better Specify a fixed IP address for your computer. In addition, in order to eliminate or reduce the number of network connections that Windows must re-establish, it is recommended to disconnect some network drives that do not need to be used. To do this, go to “My Computer", right-click the network drive that has already been mapped, select &ldquo ; Disconnect & rdquo;
2, too many hard disk partitions
If your notebook uses Windows 2000, and has not upgraded to SP3 or SP4, and defined more than 4 partitions, it may also slow down the startup. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade the Windows 2000 system to the latest SP4 or install Windows XP system, 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.
3. Plug-in USB devices
If the notebook is connected to a USB mobile device at startup, try disconnecting them first to see if the boot speed has changed. 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 setup. In addition, since each drive (including the optical drive) is detected when Windows starts up, if the disc is placed in the optical drive, the speed of the computer startup will be extended.
4, too many fonts
Although Microsoft claims that Windows can install 1000-1500 fonts, in fact we found that when installed more than 500 fonts, there will be problems, such as fonts from the application's font list It disappeared and the startup speed of Windows dropped dramatically. Therefore, Xiaobian recommends 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.
5, anti-virus software startup scan
Some anti-virus software provides a system boot scan function, in fact, this will take a lot of time, if you have opened the anti-virus software real-time monitoring function, then start the scan system It seems a bit redundant and it is completely banned.
6, too many desktop icons
too many icons on the desktop will also reduce the system startup 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. Therefore, it is recommended that you put the desktop icons that are not commonly used in a special folder or simply delete them.
7, Microsoft patch
Remember the Windows XP patch caused the system to slow down the news (for example: the code code Q328310 will cause Windows 2000/XP startup and shutdown speed is very slow, and even possible Causes the registry to be locked. If you suddenly find that the system starts slowing after upgrading a system patch, it is best to check if the patch is causing the problem.
