hit START then RUN (on right hand side) then type msconfig...then click on start up and uncheck everything.

Should make quite a bit of difference...depending on what you were running in the first place of course.

I went to msconfig and unchecked everythin, and got a shitty time of 13.44....LOL

That's from 14.09 to 13.44, not bad hé, anyway, because of this thread I decided to upgrade my pc...

and then I'll be nr 1, j/k, I think a time of 4-5 min. is enough for me.

Err.... mkay

I desperately need a new comp... anybody with £1k to spare?
It's a shitty 1.7GHz P4 and 512MB RDRAM (Rambus).
Can anybody tell me more about my CPU, and what can i do to make it run faster... can i OC it safely

Oh.... nearly forgot my proof.... you wouldn't believe me otherwise
