Correcting System Hang at Startup

If your system hangs about 2 or 3 minutes at startup, where you can't access the Start button or the Taskbar, it may be due to one specific service (Background Intelligent Transfer) running in the background. Microsoft put out a patch for this but it didn't work for me. Here's what you do:

  • Click on Start/Run, type 'msconfig', then click 'OK'.
  • Go to the 'Services' tab, find the 'Background Intelligent Transfer' service.
  • Disable it, apply the changes & reboot.

Thanks Dani !! It Really worked. And it's nice to see u as a great replier

The 'Background Intelligent Transfer' service is disabled but it still hangs for like 3-4 minutes.

Dhruva

In the orig post it says to disable it and apply changes. Are you just referring to clicking apply or are there other changes?

Is this so simple ! Works good for my system.

I have another method to do it for those who did not find any change in performance

Just try it

o Go to start menu->Run

o Type msconfig

o Under the services tab deselect the "ASP.net state service" option

Try it!!!
