very slow startup
by sprite6 - 9/24/10 3:53 AM
hello gentlemen,
I am suffering from very slow startup time on my Sony Vaio laptop, typically 86 seconds. When I 'analyse' the startup sequence (using bootvis), I find that 'Explorer' and 'Google' are loading first and take up nearly 55/60 seconds of the total startup time.
The question/help I require is to ask whether I can re-sequence the 'Explorer & Google' apps to load after the other items in the startup sequence? This would, hopefully, permit earlier use of the computer desktop, where most of my work is done, since I do not usually require Explorer/Google until later?
Thank you for any advice provided.
For information, I am using Internet Explorer 8 and Outlook Express 6.
