Using MsConfig to reduce the time it takes for your computer to start up. 

1. Click Start / Run / and Type: msconfig
2. Look in the tabs and click Startup
3. Here is where you need to carefully review what programs automatically start when the computer is turned on… and consider un checking them. Now, I will admit there is a ton of stuff in there that I don't know what it is… however, there is also quite a bit that I do know what it is…. I am sure that after you skim through this list, you will find many programs that you are familiar with and will be able to decide if you want it to run automatically when the computers loads up.
4. Remembe, the more programs that automatically load when the computer does… the slower and longer it takes for the computer to completely load up and become ready for use. You don't need to have most programs automatically when the computer loads. This really overall doesn't save time it wastes it.
