Hello, I have a vista ultimate 64 installed on my workstation. HW is as
follows: Motherboard Tyan S2915 2x CPU Opteron 2218 dual core 8Gb RAM
ECC 3x500Gb Maxtor Sata HDD in raid 5 (using internal nforce controller)
Palit PCI-E 8800GTX 795Mb RAM DVD/Ups/and so on Now, I've enable few
tweaks including but not limited to: - use 4 processors at boot time (or
shall I say cores instead) - specify manually the amount of L2 cache
installed - removed unwanted program/services. Now, a full reboot of
the system takes over 1000 seconds. This seems extremely slow to me, is
there any way to know what exactly is using all this time? Thanks and
regards rs232

Good question I'd say pretty much the same :-) It has always been that
slow, since the first day.

So, you computer takes more than sixteen minutes to boot up? There is
something seriously wrong in that case.

Check anti virus settings
Make sure you don't have it doing a scan at boot up.
