Micah 6:8 The system seens to be okay but the startup srcipt is still very slow. Can you recommend any other ideas to why the computer runs very slow when it startup? Thank you.
Go to:

Start –> Run

In the box type in cleanmgr then hit (or click OK)

Place a check beside these items ONLY:

Temporary Internet Files

Recycle Bin

Temporary Files

Click "OK" then "Yes"

Another way to help free up resources is to navigate to this folder:

C:\WINDOWS\prefetch <– folder

Then, delete all the files in that folder.

DO NOT DELETE THE FOLDER!!

Just delete all the files in the folder.

Read about it here:

Windows prefetch

Defrag the hard drive via:

Start –> All programs –> Accessories –> System Tools –> Disk Defragmenter

See if that improves things.
