How to speed up boot process under Windows Vista or Windows 7


Recommended Posts

Another thing, just checked that the lanmanserver corresponds to server service of windows which is responsible for file sharing etc. I am generally not connected to a home network but use file/hardware sharing occassionally. However, I am always connected to a wireless access point used to connect to the internet. So, what do you suggest?? Should I disable the service?

set the service starttyp to "manual - on demand" . Create a Task with the Taskscheduler which starts the service (command: C:\Windows\System32\net.exe, parameter start LanmanWorkstation) and run it on demand when you need the file sharing/network drives.

I've explained this here in detail:

no. I emailed this to a MSFT employee who works on WPT, but he has not answered. Xperf is the CLI tool to start traces. The functions to start traces are in the Windows kernel. So it is an issue with Windows. Can you open the dmp with WinDbg and look if you also get the USB issue?

When I wanted a trace, windows gave me a bsod and when I wanted a BSOD, it gave me a trace.

Somehow, I managed to perform a boot trace with drivers flag and without any bsod. I am attaching for your perusal. Two drivers seem to delay the boot- fltmgr.sys and bowser.sys whose details I could not find

By the way, the only thing I changed was upgrade the xbootmgr (I installed the windows 7.1 sdk(upgraded from ver 7.0)). So, see if it resolves the problem for you.

P.S. I have observed that system activity is zero during the first 3-4 secs. No disk utilisation, no processor usage... What areyour comments on that??

the trace is not complete. I can't see when it is finished.

Read my trace guide and you see that the first steps is to load all boot relevat drivers. in oyur case it takes to load the SPTD driver (Demon tools) and the IDE controller. that's why you see no activity.

You should really remove MSE and try a different tool. MSE is still slow.

BugCheck 1000007E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff800031bde87, fffff880033bd128, fffff880033bc990}

SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)

This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address pinpoints

the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this address

as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.

Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003. This means a hard

coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted

/NODEBUG. This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have

hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...

If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the

system is booted /DEBUG. This will let us see why this breakpoint is

happening.

Arguments:

Arg1: ffffffffc0000005, The exception code that was not handled

Arg2: fffff800031bde87, The address that the exception occurred at

Arg3: fffff880033bd128, Exception Record Address

Arg4: fffff880033bc990, Context Record Address

I was able to replicate the problem. Most likely the issue is with webcam drivers
