If you want to speed up your boot time on a vista, go to start, control panel, change start up programs, and turn off your widgets(the thing on the left side of your screen). Also turn off I-tunes. Even though I tunes doesn't open, it runs in the background and slows down your computer drastically.

[brodypros]

stopping the i-tunes service will make it where when you plug in your ipod, i tunes wont open up

[lawrencezig93]

don't install I tunes and you will save 20 secs on boot up

[oliverleehornbake]

All you have to do is set itunes to not start up in the background at bootup and it won't cost you any time.

[darthirakli]

Well, I believe the trick described in the video does not really help much to speed up a boot, since the Hard Drive speed is a bottleneck when it comes to starting up Windows.

nice tatas

In vista, if you attempt to reduce your boot time by using no GUI boot, it is a bit faster, but you will be unable to run system restore, memory diagnostics, etc. unless you can change it, which you often can not.

Fuck... is there any way to do this with XP home?

I have the XP student edition and I don't have the boot.ini tab.

[OmgThisGuy]

hrm...will try this later today

[fickie321]

I recently turned almost everything off in the services and startup tab and now i can't get into msconfig anymore

[jax1492]

lmao

[WelschVideo]

reboot with F8 in safe mode.

[sinnerzinho]

wth? LOOOOOOOL

[Santiagosony]

I use Ubuntu :)

[Rufe0]

i dont have that tab for some reason, i know ive seen it before maybe its a home/pro thing

[liger0yager]

Its for windows XP Pro works fine for me and helps alot.

[darrenc12pdg123]

this evntually slows ur pc when booting as it is using two cores to boot up then using them on the os thus overheating the core when statring lolz slowing down the pc

[liger0yager]

...Your...Wow I can't even explain how stupid your comment sounded. Running 2 cores with a PC does not over heat it thats why their are duel cores.

[steelraptor]

Wow you fail

[Goods81]

I have 8 cores

[totalembarrasment]

eight?

[Goods81]

it's an intel core i7. it has 4 cores, but....

"Each of the four cores can process up to two threads simultaneously, so the processor appears to the OS as eight CPUs.

i set msconfig to boot with 8 cores but i haven't rebooted yet to see what happens.

[totalembarrasment]

is it worth it? i was questioning to buy this thing, but i thought it was just a regular old core 2 quad with just more threads

[Goods81]

I guess it depends on what you're upgrading from. it's quite a bit faster than my dual core 3GHz. If you're building/buying a new PC anyway, I would definitely suggest core i7.

[xJPM100x]

you sir, ARE FUCKING STUPID!
