How long does XP take to boot between the admin password and complete? (For you) [asus a7v] [windows music]
Question: Hello,
Just curious – I log in as Administrator, enter my password and it sits there for a minute until the music comes to Windows. Is this similar to other running XP?
My system:
Athlon 1Ghz
Asus A7V
512M Ram
Gefore 2 MX
I am running XP Beta 2 (2462) and havent really installed software on XP, it is a clean install.
Thanks,
Joshua.
Re:After the first time I installed XP, it took me about 10 minutes to do my first login.
It's on my experimental PC running a Celeron @ 413mhz with 512megs of memory. I was so frustated, I almost formatted it and put Debian back on.

Re:Using DHCP for internet service, mine takes about a minute as well. PIII 600@900mhz, 384meg RAM.
Re:About 20 seconds, and I have default settings for services (except Diskeeper which I turned off since I'm using PerfectDisk 2000 as a defrag app.) and Norton AV, AtGuard, Naviscope, No-ad and Palm Desktop application in the startup folder. This is on my compaq laptop (700 Mhz, Intel).
Are you connected to a network? Maybe you have anic that's searching for a connection for an extended period of time?

Re:same situation for my roomie who beta-ing WInXP, an earlier build than yours, mate. WE timed it to be 54 sec, and couldn't figure out the hangup. We really didn't pay it much mind, since his comp did that on Win98se too.
Hopefully it will be fixed.
