When`s the last time you defragged 7 ?
If a program is taking 30 seconds to open up on 7, then you have something wrong. I would defrag it a few times and run ccleaner. There`s no reason for that to happen. |

Also you could check you startup programs in msconfig by going to - start - run - msconfig - startup: disable any programs that you do not need on start up

Hi there
If you switch to an SSD for the OS you shouldn't ever have to complain again about speed of load of programs whatever OS you use. Cheers jimbo |

Even with a HDD a program should take no more then 2 to 3 seconds to open, faster once it`s loaded into memory.
mssong, I must say, you are probably the 1st person ever to say " Wondering why Vista is so fast " ![]() |

The AV problem could be the reason. Do you run the same AV program on both systems.
