Startup Faster! 2004 is a revolutionary tool to make your computer startup much faster than ever while protecting your hard disk from sudden failure. Even if you have a top-speed computer, you have to endure the long time when starting up Windows(all versions). Startup Faster! 2004 completely solved this problem.

As you may know, Windows runs various programs at startup time, you even don't know how these programs were added to the startup list and when they were added. This caused Windows executes a load of programs(sometimes more than 30) on startup whether it's useful or useless which leads to a very long time starting up even on a fast computer. This problem has a long history since Windows 3.1, but it seemed that Microsoft won't solve this problem. Many users complaints about the long loading time and the noise of the hard disk when loading Windows, you even can't do anything when Windows is loading the "startup programs" in your "Startup" group and registry.

The reason for this problem is Windows loads all the programs at a time which means more than 20 or 30 programs running at the same time! That's why your top-level computer looks very slow and costs a lot of time to perform it.

Startup Faster! 2004 is specially designed to completely solve this problem, it used a unique technology called "SmartBoot to speed up the startup process. Startup Faster 2004 optimizes your boot sequence by execution time and disk load. It handles the loading of Windows and made magnificent efforts! In our thousands of tests, it can speed up your loading speed by 50% to 200%!

Startup Faster! 2004 also provides a powerful control panel to let you control all about startup such as adjusting the execution sequence, enable/disable certain program, etc. You can full control your Windows startup without much computer knowledge. Even in the default configuration, it works well on most of the PCs.

Speeds Startup & Prevents Timing Conflicts. Excellent program with advanced features. I needed this program due to timing conflicts. A timing conflict can occur when too many programs run at startup at the same time. Common symptoms include missing program tray icons or some startup programs not loading. Advanced Features I Like Include: 1) Startup Faster supports command line switches (it imports startup items perfectly). E.g., "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background 2) Monitors new startup items and imports them automatically into Startup Faster 3) If a program insists on placing another startup item every time it runs, startup faster will recognize this without duplicating startup items (i.e., it will delete the duplicate). 4) You can restore startup items to their original locations, if needed 5) Startup Faster creates a hidden folder in the Startup Folders to hold the startup items under it's control. 6) Imports startup items from the Startup folders AND the Run sections in the registry. 7) You can change the order that startup items run. By doing this, you can change the order that icons appear in your tray. 8) You can disable or enable individual startup items as needed. There are many other great features. Give the demo a try (fully functional). Note: The delay time for each item is the delay before the NEXT item will run (not the delay of THAT item).
