Most of the guys now a days don't realise what's going on in their pc and blame windows for taking so long. :p The truth is, you need to be careful of what program you are installing. For example, a raw windows XP install, on my pc, hardly takes 8 seconds to startup. But when I load up a general barrage of programs like Windows Live, Yahoo messenger, Photoshop, etc. The time easily shoots to 15+ seconds. The thing is, you've got to make the installations smarter. Make sure you don't start a program automatically. Almost 90% softwares have an option for that while installing. Don't install a truckload of fonts you don't even use, because when Windows starts all those fonts are loaded, so the more the longer. ;)

Also, if any of you have heard of nlite, then you're in for a treat. My nLited windows installation takes a mere 7 seconds to startup. ;)

Any reason why win 98 starts more faster even even though we install too many programs;)?
