Windows xp sp3 delay at the start after login

I have a windows xp sp3 with 2 GB of RAM and 250 GB HDD to 45-50minutes to load after I entered my user name and password.

Please, how can I solve this problem. I checked the hard drive for errors, and the system will load faster on e-safe. Mode
Concerning
DOE

To connect to your computer, there are a lot of programs, processes and services launch.  It is likely that one or more of these processes contributes to your delay.  The first criterion would be starting for a minimum system.  This is what we call 'Safe Mode'.  When you start your computer, several times, press the F8 key until a black and white screen comes up, and then select "safe mode" or "safe mode with networking" with the arrow keys and starts.  If your computer starts up fairly quickly, then we the non-critical elements that contribute.

To debug this, you use a program that will show you all the programs that start at startup and allow you to temporarily cut some of them to determine what (s) is / are the cause of the problem.   Microsoft has a built-in program called "msconfig" or you can download another program called "autoruns" from Microsoft
Autoruns: <> http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx >

Instructions for the startup and use of msconfig are contained in this article:
"How to solve configuration errors by using the System Configuration utility in Windows XP"
   <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310560 >

When you find what's causing your problem, the action is usually obvious.  Sometimes UN-installing and reinstalling is all you need to do.

  • Windows 7 32 bit does not start after the installation of the need for assistance

    I have an iMac 21.5 inches (mid-2011) with 8 GB Ram, 2 TB SSHD, new HL-DT-ST DVD - RW GA32N and tried to install windows 7 (32 bit) on using Boot Camp Assistant.

    I already downloaded and copied software 4.0.4033.zip Boot Camp here-> https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630?locale=en_US for my 16 GB Pen Drive MS-DOS (FAT32)

    The installation was successful, and windows 7 loads just fine 1st time, I created UserID and password, settings etc... using the apple keyboard then installed the drivers from apple on this issue of my 16 GB USB key. Seems my Magic Mouse works but my keyboard is not detected

    Then I tried to restart so the changes would come into force, and since then my Windows will not start or run Windows 7

    Now if I start my iMac hold down the Option key, I get Macintosh HDD, windows, recovery 10.11.4 and DVD. If I select Windows or Windows DVD it starts Booting then black screen followed by this Message on the screen «Press a key to boot from the CD or DVD...» »

    If I press any button it starts booting from DVD and gives me the option to install Windows and if I do not press a button some then nothing happens

    Windows does not start a BootCamp HDD and I'm left with no option but to press on the button / stop to stop iMac.

    Fortunately my El Capitan works well, but my Windows will not start. I tried 2 times install windows 7 32 Bit on my BootCamp HDD.

    So any help, I do not understand what am I'm doing wrong, I would be really grateful if someone who knew bootcamp can guide me so that I can run Windows OSX on my iMac.

    Thanks in advance.

    Remove the DVD, boot in OSX and after the release of the following Terminal commands?

    diskutil list

    Cs diskutil list

    sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

    The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.

    Hi Danielle,

    In addition to the suggestion of Rock Star, you can try the following steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1

    You can first try to start the computer in safe mode and check if you can boot to the desktop. Access the link below and follow the steps to boot to the desktop. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

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

    Step 2

    If you are able to boot to the desktop in safe mode, you can access to view the history of update on your computer and search for the error code and the updates that failed to install and post it back.

    To view the update history, follow the steps below:

    A. open the control panel (all items view) and click the Windows Update icon.

    B. click on the link to view update history.

    To view the details of a single Windows Update. Select and right-click on a Windows Update list, and then click details.

    Step 3

    I would say also allows you to perform a system restore in safe mode to see if you can restore the computer to an earlier date when it was working fine.

    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

    a. Click Start, type system restore in the search box and then in the list click on the system restore program.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    b. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.

    c. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

    d. click Finish.

    The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    Access the link below to learn more about how to repair the operating system and how torestore configuring operatingsystem to a point in time earlier in Windows:

  • No shortcut/folder "Windows Virtual PC" appears in the start menu after installation.

    I am re - a question that has been previously published by "turkeh" which the answer has not solved the problem. New: after successful Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 Ultimate RC installation the specified shortcut, "windows virtual PC", does not appear under "all programs" as the moderators mentioned; It simply isn't there. Uninstall and reinstall XP mode does not help.

    Help with this is appreciated. Thank you.

    It seems that the information may be incorrect.  You must install both, because the Menus are created by the installation of Virtual PC.  Windows XP mode installs just needed to run files, which are then used by Virtual PC.

  • Windows 8 already downloaded does not start after partitioning

    Merge two partitions of the space unallocated readers D use third-party software AOMEI partition Wizard. system unbootable Windows 8 but menu boot priority is displayed. When the hard drive selected d same process iterates.

    Hi Sourabh,

    Change the partition could have led to the loss of the starting path. So, even after the selection of hard drive, the system is not able to start Windows. I suspect that the only option is to load the default values using a recovery image. Please backup all data before starting the recovery.

  • I am trying to install Windows XP SP3, but get the error number: 0 x 80244019

    I followed all the instructions on the solutions provided, the fix for me did not work and the patch it seems to work (in other words, some of the settings needed to be changed), but when I tried the update for the gazillionth time it still does not work.  I have an old computer HP Media Center - could that be the issue?  It is a circular, thorny problem because I need to update my browser as well, but some of these commands do not work because I have not installed SP3.  Ugh.  What other options do I have? This all started because I had to run the recovery after a crash. I guess that he put everything back to factory default.

    I also download errors when I tried the advanced download SP3 which says [1] KB936929-SP3-X 86 - ENU .exe is not a valid Win32 application...

    Thanks, I had already tried that and it didn't work, but then I saw a tip in an other thread trying to install using another browser.  Once I swithced to internet explore for Google Chrome download worked!  Hallelujah.

  • Validation in Windows Vista Home Premium at the start: errors and complications.

    I was directed to this forum as a last chance for my situation.  I'll copy what I wrote before:

    First of all: I can't run Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool.

    With that of the road, I'll try to explain my situation.  Earlier today, I ran in the hope to get rid of some unnecessary files in disk cleanup. Well, he eventually delete most everything out of my C: drive.  So I ran a restoration of the system to an earlier time.  After the restoration, I tried to connect but received a box saying that my Windows Vista Home Premium product key is not valid.  They gave me three options:

    Reduced functionality mode (does not work; see below)

    Enter the product key

    Contact HP - do you have this: they wanted $ 100.

    Now before to get started by offering suggestions, you need to get more information.

    I can't use the reduced functionality mode.  When I click on it, an error with file not found window appears.  The only way I can access my desktop is by going into safe mode, and I can't go in safe mode with network.  So based on this little bump in the road, I was not able to use the tips I found online, because none of those working in safe mode.

    Now there is more.  Frustrated, I tried to follow guides anyway.  So I followed the following steps:

    Step #3 game

    (1) open Internet browser

    (2) Type%windir%\system32into the browser address bar.

    (3) find the CMD.exe file

    (4) make a right click on CMD.exe and selectrun as administrator

    (5) type: net stop slsvc (it may ask you if you are sure, click Yes)

    (6) type: cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareLicensing

    (7) type: Rename tokens.dat tokens.bar

    (8) type: cd %windir%\system32

    (9) Typenet start slsvc

    (10) type: cscript slmgr.vbs - FLIR (it may take time for this will be complete, please be patient)

    (11) restart twice

    Not only that not solve my problem (since I was in safe mode I was refused permission), but it has created a new problem.  Now when I start my computer normally, IM is more given three options (reduced functionality mode, enter a product key, contact HP).

    Instead, when I log on, an error pops up saying: "Insert the Windows CD or installation DVD into your computer to begin the process of resettlement." Now, my computer was shipped with windows and everything installed by the factory with the sticker on the side of the tower.  I have no Dvd or Cd.

    I've had this computer for almost 3 years and I can not lose what I have on my computer. I have a genuine copy of Windows.  I have no idea what I'm supposed to do now.

    ON THE PROBLEM

    This problem has happened recently. Once I turn on my desktop mode computer "sleep", it cannot reconnect to the Internet and I use only cable internet which computer is connected via ethernet to the cable-internet-modem/router cable. The computer seems to be able to view all available networks, but she was never able to connect to the Internet (after waking up from sleep). At the same time that the computer seems to have slowed a lot, I have no idea why, but I guess he's trying to reconnect to the internet and this process of reconnection is devouring its resources.

    I had other problems with this computer during this past year the half, but will not go into great detail with them now. These problems have been losing some dll. file that was ment to display the Win 7 great/normal devices connected to the computer, and a total system crashes / freezes after having updated graphics drivers AMD ATI Radeon 3000. However these problems seem to have disappeared after Windows 7 service pack 2 update. Also, I scanned the computer several times with a well-known and apreciated overall software security, no virus or other major security problems have been found.

    The only problem that seems to have the computer right now is just this question, I am trying to solve.

I now have version 2 of the windows XP operating system (host1 and windows 2) on my computer. Windows 2 is the version that works (constantly does not restart) ok, but all my program files, documents, etc. are still linked to the old version (windows 1) and therefore do not apear in the start menu. Is it possible to have these appear in the windows start menu 2, so I don't need to reload all my programs and also allow me to remove this old version that has been corrupted and not lose my files and applications. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Bill,

    It seems that you have reinstalled Windows XP on a different partition. In this case, you will not be able to use the installer on another.

    You will need to reinstall all the programs on the new facility and also, redo the settings.

    You can follow the below mentioned article to remove the invalid entry in the start menu.
