Make Windows 7 Boot Faster on a Dual-Core System

Sunday, 07 February 2010 17:50

Here's a great way to speed up the boot time of Windows 7 on your computer on a dual-core or multi-core processor.

Press Win + R to open "Run" dialog window.
Type MSConfig into the text box in the run window".
Click on the Boot tab.
Select your Windows 7 OS installation from the list of operating systems (if you are dual-booting a system this is really important).
Click the "Advanced" button.
Check the "Number of Processors" box, and then select the largest number in the list. (i.e. This will be 2 if you have a dual-core CPU)
Click OK on the dialog boxes until they all close.
Restart computer.

Let me know how it turns out!

Bit-tech has a great look at the latest USB standard USB 3!

The speeds are much faster and will be great for external hard drives.
