mildly long boot-up

[jp198780]

on my Solo it takes about 3 mins. 2 stop loading, i noticed that ZA might be slowing it down a bit, i tryed 2 get into msconfig, but that didnt work, i typed in config, some crap came up, and i searched my hd 4 msconfig, and nothing came up? any reason?

 

[jp198780]

bump.

I would suggest backing up your data and performing a system restore/reinstall. Its surprising how much of a difference this can make to a system.

 

[jp198780]

ok, how about defragging? and how about shortening up the start-up list? 1 thing, i cant get into msconfig....

What do you mean can't get in to msconfig? Is this not XP?

 

[jp198780]

nope, this is 2000 Pro.

It only has 128MB of RAM, of course it's going to run slower. In my expierences, XP is much faster than 2000 on systems with lower amounts of RAM.

Try this:
http://***************/download.php?d=Other%20Files&name=msconfig_2000.exe
on your win2k machine.

(no virus or anything)

edit: wtf? Why won't it let me link to another forum??? dang this stupid no spam stuff....

go here

edit again: that didn't work either.

ok try this

x t e c h f o r u m . c o m /download.php?d=Other%20Files&name=msconfig_2000.exe

It is a msconfig file for Windows 2000, btw

Are you sure you typed MSCONFIG into the run box? I know it works on 98 and XP. Looks like you just typed in CONFIG

When u copied the link, you must have forgotten to delete the space on .exe in the end

http://[xtechforum].com/download.php?d=Other Files&name=msconfig_2000.exe

Just remove the "[]", and don't forget about deleting the space on .exe

But it doesn't work in 2000, that is why I posted the link to that file.
