I went from a 6m 40s boot up on a Lenovo X41 tablet PC to 6m 10s… sigh. So, a difference, yes. Worth it for 30s? Took me about 30m, so I suppose I’ll need to restart 60 more times to break even.

Per Microsoft, this does not speed up boot time:

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/.....fault.mspx

From Microsoft’s page, “Please note that Bootvis.exe is not a tool that will improve boot/resume performance for end users. Contrary to some published reports, Bootvis.exe cannot reduce or alter a system’s boot or resume performance. The boot optimization routines invoked by Bootvis.exe are built into Windows XP. These routines run automatically at pre-determined times as part of the normal operation of the operating system.”

Hola les escribo porque estoy con un problema en una Notebook Toshiba Satellite A 55 Series Celeron M ( 1,40Ghz) con 512 de memoria ram; la cual luego de haberle instalado el Nod32 version 2.70 se ha vuelto demasiado lenta en el inicio de Windows Home; por lo que tuve que instalarle el Bootvis y realmente no entiendo muy bien los parámetros gráficos y la configuracion del mismo ya que no son similares con respecto a otros foros.
Les escribo a Ud./s porque este sitio me parecio mas simple; esperando una resuesta satisfactoria les saluda atte.

I use Win XP, and have recently downloaded Bootvis…and I find my system booting up faster…but it doesnt show the graphs….and a window pops up mentioning “Bootvis has encountered a problem and needs to close”…and then I have to click the “close” tab…and it closes. Any suggestions??
