  1. Slow startup or restart


    Hello,
    i have noticed that my startup time and shut down time has increased even though windows is up to date and I have no other problems with windows or my hardware. And i have not messed with any of windows settings or any thing else. And yes all my drivers are up to date and this problem occured before i updated windows or my drivers I personally don't think this is caused by old drivers or latest version of drivers.

    Windows specifications:
    Edition Windows 10 Pro
    Version 20H2
    Installed on ‎12/‎2/‎2020
    OS build 19042.746

    Device specifications:
    Processor IntelR CoreTM i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50 GHz
    Installed RAM 4.00 GB 3.89 GB usable
    System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
    Pen and touch Touch support with 20 touch points
    I know it is a old laptop but it was booting up fast about a week ago 1-2 mins max. But now it take alot of time4-5 mins minimum. I have been searching the internet for a week i didn't find anything about this.
    Please do help me with this I am really having a big problem because of this as for example I have something urgent to do and it takes forever to load. Please help me!!!

    :)

    Slow Startup

    see if my words helps...skip the steps that u already tried.
    1. check the start-up items. Run the command of "msconfig" , check the "start up" page(i am not sure of the precise name of this page,coz.i am using chinese version of windows). diable ALL the items listed. save the setting and restart.
    2. check the free space of each partition of harddisk. make sure that each partition has a free space of more than 1 gb( higher ,better).
    3. check the list of installed programs, through the control panel. uninstall those seldom used
    4. it might be unkown comflict of softwares. keep your system as clean as possible. for example, you can disable your antivirus, then restart to see if it is faster
    5. it might be fragments. defrag all partitions.
    6. manage the services of your system. right click "my computer",click "manage(G)", in the window below, the third level-1 menu is "service and applications". disable unecessary auto startup services.
    7. up to repend~~

    Slow Startup

    Does anybody know why I am having really slow system startups? I don't have extra startup programs than I use to have. The only thing that I think it could be is my antivirus program. I use AVG now since I reformated 2 days ago..and every since then, I have a really slow startup..I don't know if that is the reason..Does anybody have any suggestions, on how to speed my startup? I use to be able to be on my desktop screen in like 35-40 seconds at most. And now it is way over a minute. Any help would be gr8.

    -slip*Cool Slow startup or restart :cool:
