Unless HP support has gotten better over the years, that may or may not be a great idea. 'those folks make great hardware, but their support is pathetic! One dude, who obviously couldn't get 6 inches away from a script, once advised me to trouble shoot a problem by disabling my entire startup group. I shudder to think how many newbies might follow such advice, and wind up with a totally disabled machine, and no one else around to help.

If you want to speed up the load process and performance you want only entries under the startup tab. Not all entries should be unchecked. Things like MS Office, your favorite media player, Adobe and such, are all okay to uncheck. Second, if I was looking at the right specs for your computer you should have 4 Gigs of memory, right? This should be enough memory to run Windows, JFW and other programs comfortably. Was the recommended settings for appearance or performance? Always use performance settings. If you were to call HP, as you should have support, just let them know that the performance seems slow. Are you running Symantec or MacAfee products? These are notorious as being resource hogs. Hope this can help.

Yes, it has always been like that. I have looked on msconfig, but I don't know what to look for. Any suggestions? /Kristoffer strange. First 2 minutes to get the logon sound, and then 2 more to start jaws. 2014-11-19 7:20 GMT+01:00, Kristoffer Gustafsson <[email protected]>: > Hi. > I bought a new computer a couple of days ago. > hp prodesk 600. > It takes very long to start windows. about 2 minutes. > then another 2 minutes to get jaws running. > What can this be? > Should it not go faster than this? > /Kristoffer > > -- > Kristoffer Gustafsson > Salängsgatan 7a > tel:033-12 60 93 > mobil: 0730-500934 > -- Kristoffer Gustafsson Salängsgatan 7a tel:033-12 60 93 mobil: 0730-500934 _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com
