Why dose my laptop take a long time to start?

My lap top takes 3mins to start why?

Hello

Three minutes is not long however you can probably cut that with these methods.

You can use these to control which startup programs. Many others who settle start-up are not
really need to be there. As Acrobat Reader (Adobe), Agent of WinAmp and many others who
load chunks of themselves to start more quickly (not a problem on the machines of today ' hui) and to make sure that they
can control the files they support (to be sure that you continue to use only). Those who are not common
examples and not meant as a slam on these programs very well.

  • Satellite M300 PSMDCA takes a long time to start

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M300 PSMDCA - 01800C and there are some problems with it.

    First of all, when you start the computer, it takes a long time to start and activate Outlook.
    I am running Windows 7Home Premium.
    Computers arrow where I bought the computer told me that it can take up to three hours to go back through each process at startup?

    Is it normal that all I wanted was a simple portable easy fast, but it seems that I am stuck again.

    Also, when I go back to the computer, even after some time the mouse it does not provide new and pushing the Start button just a blank screen. Alt + Ctrl + delete, then he activates Windows again and then after having put my password and I have to wait for that be again loaded everything that takes so long. Any ideas?

    Also I often get the message when the computer starts "error has occurred in Toshiba PC Health Monitor. He will leave the application. "Main.frm.cpp (184). Any ideas?

    Quite often when I am scrolling with the mouse, the screen will turn black and flash and a message «the NVIDIA display driver... couldn't Reg...» "and he will correct itself after awhile. Frustrating!
    Quite often when scrolling on the websites of the page I'm going to freeze?

    I use MS Office 2010 and there is a problem trying to save Word documents and a message comes up with "a file permission error.

    Any thoughts? Thanks, Shirl51

    This nonsense!
    The system should boot up quickly my laptop needs 30 seconds to start.
    In my opinion, the system is screwed

    In your case, I recommend to reinstall the system.
    Did you create the recovery disk?
    If this isn't the case, I think that detailed instructions should be placed in the user's manual.

    After the recovery of disk has been created, restore the system, BUT save the data before doing so because the recovery disk would be to format the HARD drive and you lose data!

  • Visual Studio 2008 Pro takes a long time to start after the installation of measurement Studio 2009

    After installing Measurement Studio 2009, I noticed that it takes a long time (30-60 seconds) to open a Visual Studio project.

    I do not have an internet connection on my development computer and suspect he might be waiting on some kind of operation of the network to time out.  I had problems with Visual Studio in the past as well and had to work around them by adding entries to my hosts file (to redirect some addresses of Microsoft to the local IP address - this causes network operations to expire immediately).

    Just curious if anyone has encountered this kind of slow startup time and found a solution.

    Thank you!

    I found an article referring to a question similar to MS 8.1.  I don't know if the problem has simply not been corrected or why I am still having this problem.  Workaround "per computer" listed in the article solved my problem.

  • Reading takes a long time to start

    Even though I have good requirements, I have always problems in execution of Adobe first Pro CS5. Rendered in the preview window (reading) takes long to start and hick-ups in video and audio is displayed. Jump to a point in the script takes awhile, sometimes 10 seconds.

    Project

    My project contains four media (broadcasting sport event) MXF files, each long about a hour and 20 GB in size. I also imported certain components of an After Effect project. Videos audio files have already peak files, located in the same directory as the original files.

    Configuration

    Since I thought that the current 4 GB of RAM was the bottleneck, yesterday I bought some extra RAM and have now 9 GB works fine. Here is my configuration of my Dell XPS 435MT:

    • Processor: Intel Core i7 920 (2.66 GHz, 8 MB cache, 4.8GT / sec)
    • RAM: 9216 MB (3072 MB (3 x 1024) memory DDR3 1067 MHz + 6144 MB (3 x 2048) 1333 MHz DDR3)
    • HDD: 750 GB Serial ATA (7200 RPM)
    • Screen: 21.5 inches S2209W Widescreen Trans European Black Value (1920 x 1080) - DVI - D
    • Graphics card: 512 MB ATI Radeon 4850 card graphics card
    • Audio: Audio Integrated HDA 7.1 Dolby Digital capability
    • OS: Windows 7 64-bit


    First, preference Setup > memory is 6 for Adobe and 3 GB for other applications. First, the record was good, but after a few minutes, the beginning of a preview takes more time, once again. Sometimes after you quit and restart first, it's going well for a while.

    When previews took a long time to start, I started to see performance data. I do not have any other big process, my CPU keeps exhausted and my RAM is fairly constant at 4 GB. So, which seems to be OK.

    My hard drive might be a problem? I have a hard drive that is partitioned into two disks, where all programs are on C: and D: contains the project and all the video and audio files (a 60 GB of free space).

    Another small thing I spotted is that stuff in After Effects are deposited Summit whenever I open the project. For a specific component on AE, I already count 48 files peak. Other video files don't are not in peak filed again. Is first a new file of the art for all the imported components, even if some components are intact? I don't think this is the cause, but it seems strange.

    Are there other things to watch? Any help would be appreciated kindly.

    Requirements minimum ages being a DEDICATED for the video player. Adobe is very hard to be quite vague on this subject and many complaints have been posted here, but Adobe foolhardedly continues by saying only what is needed to install the program, do not to use it. Common wisdom is at least two better but three different physical disks.

  • Computer HP laptop 14-d004tx - takes a long time to start whenever I turned it on

    It really bothers me that my new laptop, (just a week) when takes a lot of time before it starts. After the HP logo, it displays a blank page where my cursor can be moved, so he'll stay a very long time so I find myself stopping and then turn on again and again until it finally starts.

    Is this normal? It really takes a lot of my time specially I use my laptop for work. What should do?

    Thank you! I really need help here...

    Hello

    Since it is a week it would be better to contact HP in your area & report it.

    Meanwhile, a test of full hard disk & memory test by pressing F2 or F10 as soon as you turn on the system and on entering the BIOS, pass-> component test system Diagnostics.

  • 7 OCX WMP on Windows ce 6.0 R3 takes a long time to start playback of video files.

    I try to use the WMP OCX 7 under windows ce 6.0 R3. My application written in c# and works fine, the only problem is the time it takes to start plaing a video file. I noticed that the more the file is large the longer it takes to start. With the debugger, I tried to step of the procedure of game, and the statement that takes all the time is the parameter of the URL property of the OCX.
    Have you ever seen something similar? Can you help me solve the problem? I have not found information about this behavior in on line documentation.

  • Why this video rendering takes a long time?

    OS X Mavericks, Photoshop cc 2014, 2011 core i7 3.4 imac with 32 GB of ram, 256GB ssd drive work, 2 GB video card.

    See images for the configuration of the layers, etc. and export settings. Each 'shift' is a jpeg of a MB placed as a smart object. Each lower third is about 2 MB, placed as a smart object.

    Rendering takes about 24 hours to complete. Why is it so much to take? I tried this on other machines, but they're all around the same time. Is there a better way to do it? Thank you, in advance, for your help!

    Photoshop screenshot.jpg

    How long we video clips and I see at least one you have added a camera raw smart filter.   I don't know how a smart filter works on a video clip. However if Photoshop need tenant one full frame for each video frame and filter each image frame with ACR then encodes images in a video stream to mp4, it could be a very time consuming process for nearly 170 000 frames.  Have you tried encoding mp4 without using the smart filter ACR adjustment? Also, you do not show the range of the timeline.

  • Why my photo library takes a long time to create or open a library?

    I have my photo library automatically updated to Version 1.0.1. When I click on the "Get Started" button, it is still loading. It was a night.

    There is an important image in my library. What should I do?

    Hi skrxoxo,

    The length of time that it will take to your new to create photo library depends on the number of photos that you have your different libraries and your internet connection speed if you have enabled iCloud photo library.  It could take up to a week if your photo collection is vast. Here is some information on the process:

    Start with Photos for OS X
    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204655

    If you need to access the image important that you mentioned above, you can use the Spotlight search if you know the name of the file.  Or, you can open iPhoto or Aperture, if the file exists in one of these libraries.

    Take care
