If you need to speed up Windows startup here's a few steps to do.

 

First go to run then type msconfig >> then go to startup and uncheck items you don't want to start with windows startup ... then click on Apply ok and it will ask you to restart or restart later. 

 

Second go to run then type %temp% >> select all items and delete them permanently ,,. some few items won't be deleted "it doesn't matter".

 

Third go to run again then type prefetch >> select all ite,s and delete them permanently.

 

this should speed up windows startup.

 

aslo check for viruses, spywares and ad-wares. and keep your system defragmented.

 

- Using Minimal Visual Effects

Disabling certain (or all) visual effects can definitely enhance performance. To disable visual effects, do the following:

Press Windows key and while holding it down, press Pause/Break key.

In the window that appears, click on Advanced system settings in the left side pane.

In the Advanced tab, under Performance Section, click on Settings

In the Performance Options window (refer figure) that appears, under Visual Effects tab, disable the options that you do not need. Or simply selecting ‘Adjust for best performance‘ will disable all options.

After disabling the option, click Apply and then OK.

Doing the above might make the screen less attractive. But, the performance will surely get a boost.

 

- Clean Up The Hard Drive

Remove unwanted files, like temp files, downloaded program files, recycle bin, etc. You could use Disk Cleanup option to do this, as follows:

Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup

The system will first calculate how much space can be freed up this way. In the Disk Cleanup window (refer figure) that appears, select the files in that need to be deleted under the Files to delete list.

For deleting ‘System Restore‘ and ‘Shadow copy‘ files, click "Clean up system files" and then on "More Options" tab

Finally click OK. You’ll be prompted again before the deletion. Click Yes.
