  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forum.

  I understand that the process of starting your computer is slow. Let me ask you a few questions to better understand.

  1. What security software do you use?
  2. You did it all meaning hardware or software change?
  3. You get the error message? If Yes, when and what is the exact error message?

  I suggest that you perform a clean boot procedure, and then try to install the add-in.
   
  See the link to perform the clean boot.

  Method 1: How to perform a clean boot in Windows

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135/en-us

  Important: Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

  Note: See " " How to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting "to prepare the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting. "

  Method 3: Optimize Windows performance

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/optimize-Windows-better-performance#optimize-Windows-better-performance=Windows-7

  Note: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

  Note: When running chkdsk on the drive hard if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area so all available data on this risk be lost.

  Method 4: You can use the provided patch below it article and check if that helps to solve some problems.

• Satellite L300-1BB - portable computer takes 3-5 minutes to get into Windows

  I have a Satellite L300-1BB sys unit.

  When I start the laptop and prepare to load windows on the Welcome screen it takes 3-5 minutes to enter Windows.

  I tried every update BIOS, firmware and nothing happened.

  Is there a solution?
  Please answer

  Hello!

  In your case, I would check how many programs in the startup folder and in msconfig. Clear all programs that you don't need (start-online programs-online start-up) and also have a glance in the msconfig (start-run-msconfig online online). There you can disable programs too.

  In addition, you can defragment your HARD drive. I'm doing this every month 1-2.

  Remove programs that you n t need to increase the speed at startup.

  Good bye

  Hello

  Thank you for writing to Microsoft Communities. From your problem description, I understand that you are facing problems when the computer starts.

  1. what operating system is installed on the computer?

  Please go ahead and follow the steps mentioned and later a update on the State of the question.

  Method 1: Check if the problem is caused by some faulty devices on your computer. I suggest that you disconnect all external devices except the mouse and keyboard to your computer and check to see if the same problem happens.

  Method 2: Try to run the troubleshooter of Performance:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-performance-Troubleshooter

  Method 3: Try to boot in safe mode and check if the same problem occurs.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  (For Windows Vista)

  Method 4: If the question does not exist in Mode safe mode then try to set up your computer in a clean boot state, and check to see if the same problem happens.

  By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  7. I would like to install and run Autoruns to check what is in the startup process

  8. AND, above all, focus on the applications installed.  Some of them are notorious resource hogs who insist on running at startup.

• 64-bit Windows 7 system takes 10-15 minutes to start

  I had the same install of Windows 7 on my desktop since 2009. The Office has faced a lot of hardware upgrades. I replaced the video card three times, the main hard drive once and last year updated card motherboard and CPU. That the last change in particular has many victims, adding 3 or 4 minutes to start time.  I'm looking for more than 10 minutes when I hit the power button when the Office has completely loaded and the system is usable.

  A few months ago, I reduced my startup time of 15 minutes to 9 minutes to uninstall Avast (that I replaced with Windows Defender). However, it has been creeping upward again. In recent days I uninstalled a lot of old software, cleaned my temporary files, used CC Cleaner to solve some problems of register and clean unnecessary files more and used the Autoruns utility to eliminate many services and drivers that I need not running when you start Windows. I did not notice an improvement in startup time; in fact, it seems slightly less good, but maybe it's my imagination. In general, it takes about 6 minutes to get to the deskop visible mission and another + 5 minutes for desktop computer to be fully charged and all usable.

  I have a software minimum run at startup: Windows Defender, DataColor SpyderUtility and Realtek HD Audio manager.

  This is my work computer and I can't save 40 hours or more, he would have to reformat the hard drive, reinstall Windows, download all updates for Windows, download and install Adobe Creative Suite, Studio Android, Android SDK, Git, Mercurial, FlashDevelop, the AIR SDK, Eclipse, MAGIX Music Maker and many other utilities.

  I can provide the newspapers that might help troubleshoot the root cause of the problem, let me know which. Since the upgrade to a Gigabyte P55M-UD2 and i7 - 860 a MSI Z97 - G45 and i7 - 4770 k triggered my startup time of 4-5 minutes, I feel like it would be a good place to focus first. I imagine that there is some driver issue or a similar problem, but have been unable to diagnose on mine.

  My system:

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

  Card mother MSI Z97 - G45

• "Firefox guard wanting to install ver.17, I left it and it crashes on 'Check now to add on cooperation', this may take a few minutes", there is a one-hour, not MB

  Ugh... firefox was wanting to install 17.01 or 17.04, can't remember what number she bothers me and bother me until I said okay, I'll update my version. so I let him, you need to restart my computer, so he said just a minute firefox checks your addons for comparison, or whether the 'f' he says, then turns on a box and a horizontal line scrolling back and forth as his work and the bottom says, this may take a few minutes. Well, I wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and... nothing. I can't cancel, I can't x out of the box... I let it for more and time and it does nothing... so I have to use internet ex. I have redownloaded firefox from there to try it from scratch and same thing, if I cancel the box immediately stops then nothing I can rehit the firefox button and it will load firefox. but never fear... another box comes up later and says you need the latest version of firefox... man if the system on your end doesn't, can't you guys see this? I am disappointed that you have exhausted there is too long too. and ads and the slow and privacy is becoming more of a question

  It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

  Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/profiles

  New files will be created if necessary.

  See "extension corrupted files:

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/unable+to+install+add-ons

  If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to check if there is an available update compatibility.

  If that didn't help then also try to delete the file addons.sqlite.

  See you soon

  Hello

  I agree with Jonathan

  A little more RAM can be very good, and it can make your device faster and more flexible. I recommend you to check all active running process. Generally, many of them is absolutely useless, but they can slow down the system quickly especially if the device does not have a lot of RAM.

  I recommend clean up the operating system, use the Defragmenter tool and check applications that start with Windows. Many of them may be disabled. Enforcement antivir may also slow the operating system currently running. Check all this. I hope that your device will work better.

  By the way: the compatible memory module for your device are
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

  Good luck!

  Hello

  Have you checked the CPU usage rate?
  Start the Task Manager and check if any strange background process needs the full CPU performance.

  I also recommend to check the laptop for some viruses and malware. These programs could make the laptop and the lazy BONE.

  However the portable equipment could bad work.
  You should check the memory using the Memtest86 program. It s freeware. Check the HARD drive for bad sectors and also try to defragment the HARD drive!

• You try to transfer data to new computer, takes about 30 minutes to collect data, and then told me that it will take 33 + hours of transfer

  I have 2 PC, two 40 g X 2 g, an old score about 12 GB of data, 71% free, new is ready to receive. When I make the connection with a null cable and start, it takes about 30 minutes to put together and start the transfer, but it gives a transfer time of 33 + hrs and that means, I let it run for about 6 hours, and he was always less than 6% of fact. No games or large, larger files is about 12 MB. Any help? Bob

  If cable "null", you hear a serial RS-232 cable, you probably chose the slowest method of data transfer possible.  A serial cable tops out at raw data of 115 Kbps (115 000 bits per second) rate the most current Ethernet 100 Mbit/s connection - is about 1000 times faster.

  I don't know why some s/w you use takes 30 minutes to "collect" information before starting the transfer, but if you have about 12 GB of data (and don't have / want an Ethernet connection), why not just get a big enough USB.  You can get a 8 GB USB key for less than $15 and a 16 GB for about $20.  If you have USB 2.0 (which is likely, unless your old computer is older than 10 years), the maximum raw data rate is 480 Mbps with rates effective data around 20-30 MB/s for the memory sticks.

  At 20 MB/s, 12 GB should be transferred in about 600 seconds or 10 minutes.
