    Sheeshh, your autoruns log look the same 2nd time around, you obviously like your startup as bloated as possible! Especially entries like Qtime and Carpserv...what a waste of system bootup time and resource afterwards...

    Also, what is the deal with replacing the Teminal server .dll file? Why was it replaced and also how was it replaced? It sounds like you been messing around with your system a bit too much!

    Having concurrent logons for whatever reasons would also cause a bit of a performance hit. Have you tried running Bootvis?

    What other cool utility to help you monitor what is being loaded (service/driver wise) is LoadOrder.

    ~TL

    Btw, that password protected .zip file you attached had a Trojan in it!!









    ....just kidding!

    I have disabled a LOT of things at startup...it's wierd that autoruns doesn't reflect that in the log...

    I've had quicktime disabled. carpserv I have yet to disable...I'm going back to dialup this week, and really don't want to change it back just to change it again...

    I replaced the termsrv.dll file with an earlier version before MS took the concurrent logons off. I know a few people who have done this w/o issues both of which I trust very much and don't have any problems.

    I will check out those utilities when I get a chance. Hopefully sometime tomorrow, but if not, by thanksgiving.


    And believe me...I don't send trojans, and actually very much hate them :P :P - nice try though.

    I will scan through the loadorder log as time permits but the initial scan didn't show anything significantly off place.

    Bootvis > Trace > Optimize System option could also help improve the bootup by modifying the startup services and drivers, so do that as soon as you get a chance.

    Also take a look at this.

    Remember, at best case scenario, each and every startup entry adds minimum 1-2 seconds to your startup after the login (loading of user profile) is initiated. So, it does make sense to be picky with what you allow in the startup section...
