Why does my computer run slow? I can have breakfast and its still loading the start-up programs! Here are a few steps you can do to speed up your startup.

1. Remove unnecessary programs that are loaded at startup.

2. Disable schedule scans at startup.

3. Edit the start menu registry. Reminder: be careful in editing entries in the registry. Mistakes can crash your system. To do this, click on start>run and type in regedit and click on OK. Look for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. Under that, look for MenuShowDelay and double click so you can edit the value. The lower the value, the faster the start menu will load in your system.
