Can someone please tell me a way to make my (supposedly fast) xp machine to boot up in (hopefully) less than 10 seconds. I've tried bootvis, defrag, disk clean up, and i reinstalled windows xp about a month ago.
P.S. i have three machines @ home, one vista, two xp
Jump to PostOh my God man. Seriously, 10 seconds is beyond reach
Jump to PostThere is a tweaker I know that can achieve ten second boots but his methods are way above the norm.

Here's a tip for you to try.
1. Click on the start button
2. Press R it will take you to Run well go to run
3. Type Regedit and press enter
this will open Registery Editor, now look for the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MECHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ContentIndex
4. Now there find the key called "Startup Delay" double click on it.
5. In the box marked Base,Click Decimal, now its default value is 4800000
6. Change the value to 40000
7. Now close the Registery Editor and Restart Your Computer
You'll See The Result, you have done it.
just never shut it down
just never shut it down
LOL thats a good one
hibernate, thats what i do.
Not sure what you mean, but i shut my system down everyday and never get any problems.
Why Ten seconds? If need so then you need to reduce number of startup programs
Just MHO
