How to boot quicker?

Solution 1:

You should try autoruns for windows from sysinternals. Using autoruns, you can disable many unneeded startup junk.

This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order Windows processes them. These programs include ones in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other Registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell extensions, toolbars, browser helper objects, Winlogon notifications, auto-start services, and much more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

Solution 2:

Seems that BootVis does exactly what you want.


Solution 3:

Dodge the problem - use hibernating/sleep mode. I use it all the time and forget what is a boot time. This should work assuming you don't make many reboots.
