How to speed up Windows XP bootup


My Windows XPs bootup speed was always slow and I was always wondering, How do I speed up Windows XPs bootup speed? Then I found a simple way to speed it up.

Just follow these instructions and Windows XPs bootup speed is surely to increase.
  1. Click Start
  2. Click Run
  3. Type in Msconfig and click ok
  4. Click the Services Tab and check 'Hide All Microsoft Services'
  5. Uncheck anything that isn't important there (Don't uncheck your anti-virus!)
  6. Click the Startup Tab
  7. Uncheck anything that isn't needed
  8. Click OK
  9. Done

If Windows XP is still booting up slowly, then you could use a tool called Microsoft Bootvis.

Microsoft Bootvis optimizes the boot-up files in a way that it organizes them to load faster than anything else which in the end, speeds up overall boot-up time for Windows XP.

You can download Bootvis here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/System-Tweak/BootVis.shtml

How to use Microsoft bootvis to optimize bootup time:
  1. Start Bootvis
  2. Click Trace
  3. Click Next Boot + Driver Delays
  4. Let Bootvis restart your computer
  5. After your computer has restarted, wait for bootvis to load (if it doesn't load, start bootvis)
  6. Click Trace
  7. Click Optimize System
  8. Let Bootvis reboot your system
  9. Enjoy a faster bootup time

Enjoy your new fast bootup :)
