I have a computer that is just slow when it displays the system is
starting up screen. The computer is a slower computer P4 1.6 w/128mb of
ram running windows XP home SP1 (haven't wanted to put sp2 on yet with
this problem) with 22 processes running. But even still I can't help
but notice that not all computers will lag like this during the start
up screen. Can someone explain to me what windows is doing during this
time so that maybe I can free up some more stuff. the computer did have
alot of spyware on the system pre this problem, although I did clean it
all out using AVG 7.0 for trojans, adaware fully updated, spybot fully
updated, spysweeper, and giant, followed by manually going through the
registry and taking out BHO's and run items. also scanned a second time
using norton 2002 with latest virus defs. Computer is also running
norton on start up and that it
here's a hijack this log to get an idea of what's on the computer.
