boot is now much better. Windows is booted to the desktop in 15s and it takes 35s to boot completely. Most time is used by ATI catalyst center. So uninstall it and try ATI Tray Tools for changing the driver settings.

@AllanFreelancer

have you removed all the snakeoil tools? Do this and let the PC idle for some time. Windows runs defrag it's own. After 2 days try again to make a trace.

Hi MagicAndre,

I don't know if you remember me... I noticed from my premerged trace that Windows Search service took a LOT of time, so I disabled the service and voila!

I was able to capture the whole trace and got no errors during xperf processing.

and here it is the download link http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QEF5PW4V

but as I mentioned before, I needed to disabled the service of windows search.

kind regards,

Yes I remember you.

Windows takes 30s to boot to the desktop and 47s to boot completely:

timing bootDoneViaExplorer="30044" bootDoneViaPostBoot="57444"

The service NanoServiceMain (Panda - "C:\Program Files (x86)\Panda Security\Panda Cloud Antivirus\PSANHost.exe") causes a 20s delay. Is version 3.0.0.78 the latest Panda version? If not update and if it is, remove it and try a different AV tool

Hi again MagicAndre,

thanks for your promptly respond, but I was checking the official site of panda cloud and 1.5.1 is the latest version as a free antivirus.

please see the attachment and I don't know what antivirus install on my system since Avast cause a delay of 30 seconds on my PC

and seems that my computer sucks with any antivirus I install.




kind regards,
Allan

I checked the fileversion of the PSANHost.exe and this version is 3.0.0.78. But if you use the latest version from the website than it is the latest version. Try a different AV tool (Avast, Avira AntiVir, MSE)

[gotthimself]

I deleted the whole BootExecute entry and voilà: Windows is booting fast again.

Thanks for your help Andre

<timing bootDoneViaExplorer="21695" bootDoneViaPostBoot="62795" 

it not a real change. Windows boots in 22s to the desktop and is finished completely in about 53s. AntiVir service now takes 25s to start. Also the Modem service takes too long to start. (Yota Access Service (Modems) - "C:/Program Files (x86)/Yota/Yota Access (Modems)/YotaAccessService.exe" ).

MagicAndre,

is anything that I can do for my operating system????

since it seems like my systems sucks and I run

the boot optimization several times

and Yota access services is my internet connection.

kind regards,
Allan

[MagicAndre1981]

is this Yota access service needed to connect to the Internet?

Have you tried MSE or Avira? Are they better?

Actually Yota access service is needed for the internet connection

and Avira is the antivirus that I have installed on my system that is what

I sent in my last report and now I'm gonna try MSE just to check if this time

going better.

but here it is the new report http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L4J0WE1R

no, it is the worst of all. Now Windows takes 52 to boot to the desktop and 78s to boot completely. So the is the worst result.

Remove MSE again and install Panda. Run the optimization. Panda seems to be the fastest tool for your PC.

Hello Andre,

I'm having some difficulties with my shutting down/sleep. The problem is whenever I shut down or sleep my windows 7 x64, it hangs with the monitor turned off and doesn't shut down, the only option left is to turn it off by the power button or cold reset it. BUT if I plug off manually the USB audio interface device from the USB port it shuts down/sleep properly. I'm pretty sure the problem is driver related as I'm using an external USB audio interface with a Vista driver. The device is Tascam US-122 and Tascam discontinued the product right before Windows 7 came out and therefore I'm forced to throw away a perfectly working device and spend another 150$ for a new one for which I'm not in condition.

So, as an expert in windows booting and shutting down procedure, I would like to ask you if you could find a solution or a workaround for my problem to somehow disable the device using windows before it goes to sleep or shuts down so it won't hang? Do you think if I make a shut down trace report you will be able to help me out on this one?

Thanks up front!

[MagicAndre1981]

here are Windows 7 drivers:

http://www.tascam.de...rent/US-122MKII

Have you tested them?

[spiritfly]

Those are the drivers for the third generation of that model. US-122MKII. There was first US-122, got discontinued, then came out the US-122L, but really sucked(according to reviews) and the last US-122MKII was made.

I don't believe those would fit my model, because the drivers from US-122L did not fit either. But I shall try and report.

EDIT: Nope, they do not work.

I was thinking in the direction of somehow disabling the usb port before shutdown/sleep, and came across devcon, but it doesn't work for the usb port. Disabling the usb port on which the device is connected, or disabling the device itself through device manager results in a "device manager hang" until the tascam is plugged out of the USB manually again. Darn, this seems like a simple problem to solve, but can't really think of any workaround.

Btw, here is the support page for Tascam US-122.

ok, I didn't know that there are different versions.

You can install the XPMode and use the device there.

[spiritfly]

Thought of that one too, but I'm afraid there is going to be loss in performance.

DAW software like ableton with VST plugins require as much CPU and RAM resources as possible, which will be sacrifices with virtualization.
