Startup time change

[Adi]

Hi, experts!
In start menu I have:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Recovery Console
and it's run 30 seconds if I not press Return button and
I like to change this time to max. 10 seconds.
How to change this?
Thanks!

The easy way to do it is by right-clicking on My
Computer/Properties/Advanced/Startup and

Recovery/Settings.

This setting allows you to change the default 30 second timeout for the Startup
List which normally allows you time to choose and boot an alternative operating
system.

Go to Control Panel - System - Advanced, in 'Startup and Error' click
Settings, and there is a scroll box to adjust it
