HI
I know this is not going to sound very technical but, you know when XP boots up and you get the blue thing going from one side to another? well when I first loaded XP it took 3-4 passes before going staight into the desktop. Now it takes 11 and goes to the welcome screen. I tried using bootvis and it was cool for the first boot then it dod the same as all the other times 11-12 passes. I have hardly loaded anthing on it.
My system on the whole has gone to snail pace when i use explorer it takes a few seconds to load up my stuffafter it has searched for it all.
I'm looking to format and start again, but before I do I just wondered if there was anyway of saving all the windows updates, Norton AV updates and registration details and other such stuff to the HD after I start again?
If anyone can sift throught the amateur speak and make any sense out of this and help out I'd be most greatful
Cheers
