Hi
I am having problems with my computers startup speeds. It takes too long to load and will freeze at anytime once it has loaded. I am running on windows xp with SP2.


Thanks in advance.

a dearth of info there, jez. for a start you could try diskcleanup and defrag from accessories > system tools [i'm just guessing that you may be running out of disk space - if you are, remove some unused stuff, or the junk ].

thanks for the help gerbil but i have done a defrag recently and also a disc cleanup and therefore windows advises me not to defrag. Also I have over 60GB free on my hd out of around 115GB so i think im ok for disk space.

are you out of memory?
how much ram do you have?

Go into task manager - performance tab and look under Physical Memory (K) and post what the Total memory is
If i am helpful, please give me reputation points.

umm..lessee... so many things to check... chkdsk.. try that - it will want to run on reboot - let it. It's the only way it can check the system drive [C: usually]. Go start > run, type
chkdsk C: /f and answer Y.

jez, i think you neeed to decide between bitdefender and McAffee. Two is one too many. Try uninstalling one.
Next restart HT, do a Scan Only and place checkmarks against all the following, and press Fix Checked..
[I leave the decision as to whether you should include the first up to you though..]

O18 - Filter: text/html - (no CLSID) - (no file)
O20 - Winlogon Notify: Extensions - C:\WINDOWS\

Some others...: this google WA can be so bad if they have given you a dud proxy -
O2 - BHO: Google Web Accelerator Helper - {69A87B7D-DE56-4136-9655-716BA50C19C7} - C:\Program Files\Google\Web Accelerator\GoogleWebAccToolbar.dll
Because you are the current user and you just have a blank IE home page you could fix these MSN home pages:-
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157
And i do not know what this one does for you, at all:-
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Window Title = Microsoft Internet Explorer


Now download this temp file cleaner from http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=1 --click in the download window to run it, and when ATF Cleaner opens go Select all, and then Empty Selected.
Next click Firefox [if you have that browser..] at the top, Select All again, and Empty Selected again. Follow that procedure also if you have Opera.
Close ATF.
[If you wish, save ATF Cleaner to your desktop or a cleaning folder somewhere as it is a fairly useful tool for occasional use.]
Make sure that in control panel you reove all old java versions - i see that you have the latest.
There; fix what you wish and come back with another log and your guidance on performance...
[you may need to do a restart to see effects..]
