Hi Jed,
The culprits are many,
Such as c cleaner or defrag set to run on boot up.
I would suggest the following:
1
turn windows update from automatically download and install all updates
to automatically download but let me choose what to update
2
go to task scheduler and brows around to see what programs are running
and when
And delete the programs you don't want to run.
warning!
now make sure
that window eyes is following the mouse pointer
by pressing minus on the numpad
If you do not know the difference do not continue any further and
disregard the next suggestion!
3
download the autorun
here is the direct link:
http://download.sysinternals.com/files/Autoruns.zip
just unzip the file
then run the autorun exe file program
then
control f
type
not found
enter
then press
insert plus on the numpad
which brings the mouse to the highlighted file
then press 5 on numpad
you should hear what file was searched for but not found
now right click and arrow down to delete and enter
press control shift w
to hear and confirm what is being deleted
if you are sure then enter on ok
press f3 and repeat the steps above
until not found is no longer found.
Now go through all the files being run automatically when you start your
computer.
I would guess that you have over 100.
I cleaned my brothers computer, and when I started he had 255 files
starting automatically.
When I was done, he had about 100.
If you are not sure do not delete anything! Bang!- Good luck, Manny If

Hey guys,
Alright, trying to troubleshoot some stuff here with windiw-eyes. My
computer, which is a decent machine, takes over 4 minutes to get to a full
desktop. This seems way too long. Any ideas of things to check?
I went in to msconfig, and all appears ok. Any other good places to check?
