I bought a new laptop and got 3 gig memory on it but it still taking around 2 to 3 minutes to load windows login screen.

i finished all the program from start up but still the same.

Please help me out to boot up my window fast.

Thanks.

Well, why you don't install an older windows?
Or something else, like linux ?

It's known that Vista is hard on the resources of a computer.
And as a laptop have a limited speed bus and hdd transfer rate to economize battery, it's no wonder it shows heavily on it.

Welcome to the world of Vista.

Try XP pro.

or Ubuntu

...or for best resoults in my opinion
dualboot with XP pro and Ubuntu

wouldn't recommend Vista to anyone i still love the XP pro, i'll give Vista another year to perfect their applications cause there are still some applications that wouldn't run if your OS is Vista.

most users of Vista have same problems as yours! just try to switch to XP or other OS!

loading vista required a larger capacity to load. try other OS or XP.

If you know Linux then that's the best answer.

I also used vista here in our office and it takes a lot of minute before i can turn it off! whenever I used to open multiple programs it takes a lot of time before it load those programs!

Try to downgrade to XP Home or Pro under same Vista license

You have not mentioned your laptop make? model? speed? If your laptop is vista ready then it should boot vista faster... and if not... then try Xp

I'm still using XP. Vista is very slow to load even though your computer has a good specifications. .

Maybe you can add a bigger memory, or install of software to make your pc run faster

I work in a computer store. There are numerous customers who ask me to remove Vista and put XP instead of it.

On hardware, check cabling and other part if it plugged precisely on their slot.
On software, try to disable services and uninstall program you dont need.
I recommend you to visit www.howtogeek.com for tips about vista, and also my blog ofcourse

Check ur hardware requirements like processor speed if ur processor is just as minimum requirements so downgrade to Xp, others wise contact your dealer For help

Anyone knows that Visa slows down your computer
Downgrade to XP and see what happens. If you have the same problem (and you probably not) contact your dealer.
Or buy some more RAM and see what happens.

upgrade to Vista SP1...seems to be a little improved. If you got a laptop it usually comes with lot of crap preinstalled that you dont need. Try formatting it and reinstalling from support cd's but only the essentials.

If possible go down to XP Pro and wait till Windows 7 comes out. The whole world knows Vista was a flop but microsoft doesnt want its dirty laundry flapping in wind so its getting everyone to sell a P.O.S operating system with every new computer in order to avoid embarrasment.

Give us Windows XP and it will stay strong till Windows 7 comes out.

Just my 0.02$

Yeah Vista cna be a strain. But I like the come back from the dead programming that gets back on its feet after virus attacks. I use Symantec but even so when things get through their is a blue screen utility that resusciates the drive. I need that, and I think antivirus works as a flank defense against the most aggressive sets of newer viruses.

I have used vista on my laptop but decided to switch to the XP. I think that Vista needs repairing
