Russ, Thanks have tried both and neither makes any difference. I'm even noticing lags in executing programs and commands within programs

I have a laptop that from time to time takes forever to boot and running a registry cleaner makes a difference. If you haven't defragged your hard drive lately, you might give that a try too.

I tried it with JAWS 8 as I heard 9 lags a bit but this made no difference. Only other thing I did lately was install AVG antispyware and IE 7. I've uninstalled the antispywareand again no difference. I don't want to uninstall IE 7 as eventually this will be the version everyone will be using. Has anyone else notice a decrease in boot up after installing AVG antispyware and/or IE 7? I've defragged my hard drive and run reg scrub neither of which made an appreciable difference. Anything else I can try or possible uncheck in MSCONFIG? thanks Al Visit the Blind Computing List home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/blind-computing@jaws-users.com/ To post to this group, send email to blind-computing@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the Blind Computing List home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/blind-computing@jaws-users.com/ To post to this group, send email to blind-computing@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the Blind Computing List home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/blind-computing@jaws-users.com/ To post to this group, send email to blind-computing@jaws-users.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
