Windows 7 slow start up
Windows 7, the latest edition of Operating System released by the software giant Microsoft is definitely the talk of the market these days. Everyone right from a professional to a college student is using this Operating System. Overall, the reviews have been great but unfortunately, a few of the users have been encountering some problems regarding the slow computer boot-up in Windows 7.
After spending quite a sum of money into an OS, one will be naturally upset if the OS boots slowly. So, you have to analyze this problem in order to find a proper solution.
Two Slow Computer Fixes for Windows 7 start up
Basically Windows 7’s boot up speed can be deteriorated on two cases – One, if there are too many unwanted items on the startup menu. If there are too many programs waiting to be booted up as soon as the OS loads, this will increase the fatigue of the OS and the boot up speed might be reduced drastically. So, you need to take a look at those programs and eliminate the unwanted items. Check which programs are essential for you at the system start up. For others, you can always manually open them up and use.
If this doesn’t work then the probable cause for the slowness of your OS will rest on the registry files. If you are a beginner in computers, you might wonder about how the registry files can determine the speed of the boot up screen. Chiefly these registry files are the data center in which important information regarding the startup, restart and shutdown of the system is stored. When Windows 7 is booting up, it will communicate with the registry files in the system. But when these registry files are erased, corrupted or out-dated, the boot up process might be slow or even unattainable in some cases.
There are some registry maintenance software available in the market which will clear all the errors in your registry once installed.
Also it is required that you maintain a proper anti-virus and anti-malware software once you install an advanced OS like Windows 7.
