Startup Delayer

Post by **Dangerous Bob** » Wed Sep 23, 2009 8:16 am

Is your PC still booting after you've made your coffee?

All those extra startup apps forcing you to wait to logon to facebook?

Try <a href="http://www.r2.com.au/" target="_blank">Startup Delayer</a>.

Stumbled across this little prog on a cover disc originally.
Quite simple to use, all it does is give you the option to delay startup of things such as X-fire, broadband meters etc. allowing the vital systems to boot up first and unhindered.

I tend to use msconfig and get rid of the crap thats in there.
Failing that an SSD solves most problems
