RE: Vista slow to boot? Get the facts (Troubleshoot slow starts with Vista's Event Viewer)
my wife's Vista takes 8 min to start! no joke...i look at it in task manager...."system" eats 28-58% of the cpu for 5-8 min AFTER the desktop appears (Icons are generic) the other cpu time is "system idle process"
what the crap is the "system" process doing for 7 minutes? you cant touch a thing , nothing works.
i have run a system "service" tweaker for vista to try to stop this, tuneup utilities 2007, jk defrag, etc.
NO JOY! system is a pig.....by the way....it is a 6600 2.4 Ghz quad core, 4 Gb ram, nvidia 8300 128 mb, 640 seagate with 32 mb cache. should scream.
virus/spyware protection=trend micro internet security

had since april, started this "pig" performance around a month ago
in fact, i recently installed nvidia tools to look at the cores. core 1 runs@100% during this "boot time" lag and core 4 is @87%....while cores 2 and 3 are 12 and 16% respective......then the "system" lets go and the cores all sync up and it flies!!!

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
