    Unreasonable Boot-up time


    I just got a HP desktop with Window 7 pre-installed, however, it took about 10 minutes for the starting up the computer. Is it reasonable for Window 7 operating system or there is somethnig wrong with it? If Yes, how can I fix it/them? Thanks!

    I think this would be a security problem.

    Boot your computer up, and click or tap-repeatedly F8.
    Go to Safe Mode with Network (Something similiar)
    Then open up your browser, and visit this link: Windows LIVE OneCare Scanner
    If the scanner detects something, you have viruses/malware/spyware/trojans etc.

    Hope this helps out.

    Type msconfig in the search box and go to the startup tab.

    Post a screen cap or tell us what items in that tab have a checkmark.

    HP loads tons of crap on your system'
    'Go to Start > Run, type msconfig and uncheck everything except your ant-virus,
    '
    If there stuck you with Norton, I'd remove that as well.

    Normally, it should take about one minute, or a little longer.

    Anything interesting in Event Viewer? Could be hardware or software.

    Manufacturers stuff the OS with unneeded crap. Fresh install works the best. :)

    Did you overwrite Vista (getting a windows.old folder in your Win7 root), or create a dual boot Win7-Vista?

    Can you describe where the startup hangs in particular?

    Study the Event Viewer Administrative view for errors,

    then click through WEI score link on Computer>Properties page to Advanced tools and generate a System Health report, also study the diagnostics logs for startup delay errors. Google these to troubleshoot; post back suspects.
