here's the story.... i sent off to get my mobo fixed (long story), and when some time later i got it back, and fitted a new PSU (another long story). Now Win XP takes like 2:30min to boot. WHY? I've used BootVis and the Microsoft guides, they knocked 30secs off (down to 2:30min), a Tweak3D XP boot guide. I've got a fixed IP for my LAN card (always connected), but my Sky2PC card isn't fixed, it didn't have a IP until today, but no speed increase ment (Sky2PC = 2MB/s Satellite downloads, check europeonline.com for more details. So can you guys help me? it used to boot in under 50secs, before i changed the PCI slot configurations..... Please?
