Now You Can Make Vista Boot Faster

February 4th, 2010

Before answering the question that how to make Vista boot faster let’s understand the reason why vista is so slow. In the last many years the windows XP has been the user’s first preference as compared to the Vista. In the context of the operating system windows XP can be considered as the leader whereas the Vista lags far behind.

Vista has been operating very badly and slowly for many years. But the major problem is there are no proper tools to make it fast. As compared to the XP, the numbers of tools are less in Vista.

Some of the softwares like the tune XP or the BootVis are not supported by the vista. Whereas, it is supported by the XP so this is another disadvantage of the vista.

So in order to make vista boot run quicker there is one way, that is to defrag your computer. Defragment will help your computer to free your hard disk thus making your computer work faster. As whenever in a Vista you are downloading any type of file it covers a lot of space in your hard disk. This making your system work slowly and this can be avoided only via defragment.

There is another way you can make your Vista work as fast as Windows XP. This is manually operating the defragment system in your computer. The manually operation of this function of defragmenting is very easy and simple. Just write the command “defrag c:-b” and press enter. Your system stars defragmenting. Till your computer gives the command that the defragmenting is over, you have to wait. Once your wait is over your Vista will be as fast as windows XP.

Once you defrag your computer you can make Vista boot run quicker and can work much more efficiently in the Vista. You should also check if there are any programs running on startup that you could do without. You’ll likely want MSN Messenger but some of the others you may not miss.
