Speed up, boot up

[lagerbreath]

This is a simple little guide many of you may already know, otherwise you might learn something useful :)

Basicly I'm going to give you an idea of how to boot much faster, for all of you who lack patients like myself by stopping processes from running on boot.

Start > Run, as shown in screenshot above.

Type 'MSCONFIG', then pressing ok

Once pressing ok, The 'general' tab shows up, so click the 'start up' tab as shown above.

Then click the processes you don't want to run on boot.

REMEMBER IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE PROCESS, DON'T STOP IT FROM RUNNING ON BOOT!

Common processes which are safe to stop are the likes of...

msnmsgr

Ad-Watch

Daemon

GoogleDesktop

Nerocheck

Realplay

Just most programs which would appear in the right of your tool bar on boot ;)

Hope this helped even if it is abit simple. :D

P.S.

I had alook for a post explaining samething, If anyone esle has done this then sorry not that i could find it.

All the time there are people that are new to this stuff, so it's practical to inform them...

you don't always have to be "them"
