Hi, Since you have already lessen the startup programs and still you find the PC booting too slow for your liking, it may be that you need more RAM or your processor needs an upgrade. In any case, you can still further reduce booting time by not allowing some services of Windows XP not to load during boot. You of course have to initially determine if you need them or not. An example - if you are connected to your LAN by your networking card then Wireless Zero Configuration is not need and need not start, other are Windows Time, Uninterruptible Power Supply just to name a few. Another utility that helps improve booting time is constant and regular defrag of the HD. Still removal of unwanted, no longer used programs will also aid speed up your boot time. These are of course end run methods and shortcuts, nothing beats more memory. Good luck and kind regards.

My Gigabyte Mother Board shows some time Load Optimized Defaults then boot / Load Optimized Defaults then reboot / enter BIOS. How to fix it?

Two things come to mind first. Number one would be making sure you have the most up to date bios. Number two would be that maybe the motherboard battery is dying/dead and isn't holding enough charge to after being shut down to save the option you selected.

When I start the machine it is only showing mother board name further it is nor processing also no cursor coming

Your system is not booting

You remove all HDD/ DVD/and any other device

Power on with only mother board,

It will initialise all and rest with a message "BOOT FAILURE"

It means the M/B is good

Then connect the HDD and power on.

If not proced then try to re-load the operating system.

please vote for me if your problem sort out .

Let me know

I have asus M2N68 am-plus mother board. When I switch on the comp. It takes about 10 seconds to show the boot screen. Want to know the reason behind this

hi,
it could be something is slightly loosen up in there. to check your load up time, go to start then right-click on my computer. click on properties. there you will see advance system settings, click on its tab.on the startup and recovery category, click on settings. there you will see how much time does your pc takes to load. if you can open up your pc and make sure that everything is hooked up properly, then switch it back on.

If i enable the USB drive in CMOS.after booting the system is hanged.only mother board name mercury is shown.

The problem is with the Installed USB Devices. Check whether you are using any of the USB slots in your system. If any printers or any other USB devices are installed the boot will check with these devices, so your system is getting hanged. Try to disable the USB booting or else remove the usb device and then boot. This will resolve your problem.
