A Quick Tip To Speedup Xp Startup

Here’s a quick tip to speed up your Xp startup. You can also use this tip if your computer takes a long time to become useable after starting up or logging. Just follow the below steps:

  • First go to Start > Run
  • Now type “msconfig”
  • On the Startup tab click Disable All and on the Services tab check the Hide All Microsoft Service box and then click Disable All.
  • Click Restart and Windows XP will restart with only the system services and applications running.
  • Now you’ll notice that the startup speed has improved.

NOTE: This tweak will disable all non-system startup services and applications so if you have anything you want to run in the background such as anti virus software do not disable that item.
