winxp is lagging now :/

When i first installed it and all my drivers and what not it loaded up within 4-5 of those bars going acorss the screen on boot up. Now it takes 10+.

Is this normal? or does it mean some pos software is whoring it up?

Thanks

i only have 3-4 😀

it was quicker when i had no video drivers installed... no usb... and no network card

Try BootVIs

Over time, that happens. Try a defragmentation, and also try Bootvis and see if that helps you with your boot times.
