XP Slow Start up solution?
Neither the critical updates nor XP's own services will cause a boot time of
2 to 3 minutes. The operating system can be adversely affected when it has been changed in unsupported ways. This can happen as a result of a virus or adware or sometimes just inexperience on the part of the user. Similarly, the critical updates do not anticipate encountering an operating system that has been changed in unsupported ways. Therefore, more than likely your problem is not directly caused by XP's own services or the updates. You're going to have to look elsewhere, at hardware or software changes that you have made to your system (or that have been made for you!) Rocky "CT" wrote in message ... I may have found (after trying dozens of suggestions from this and other newsgroups) what is causing my PC to take several minutes longer to start up than it used to. I had found that if I un-install all of the XP updates and service packs, my PC would boot without the 2-3 minute delay. However this was not an acceptable solution and I could not pin down which specific update was the culprit. However I also discovered that if I disable the Remote Access Connection Manager (through msconfig, services) my PC boots up as fast as when I first got it. The down side is that XP's Firewall is no longer functioning since it needs this service. So it appears to me that the problem lies with this service and is linked to one of the security patches. Anybody (MS MVP) have any answers as to why? Is the solution to disable this service and XP's firewall and go with a third party firewall? |

XP Slow Start up solution?
Sometimes the Event Viewer will show an error at the DHCP event (#1002). The message referrs to an IP address lease being denied. However when I go to the Microsoft site mentioned it says that no user action is required and that the DHCP Client will obtain
a working address. There is only a second between this even and the next event, Service Control Manager (#7036). As I mentioned, I don't always get this error. The Event Viewer does show (consistantly) over 2 minutes elapsing between the TCPIP event (#4201) and the next event, Service Control Manager (#7036). I have not been able to tell what is going on during this interval. |
