Microsoft has chosen a completely different path for XP and it's boot
features by trying to incorporate as much support for newer fastboot
BIOSes that are on most current motherboards. They built XP in such a
way as to make it able to take advantage of features in these new
BIOSes, and one of the coolest things is a small application called
bootvis. bootvis.
Bootvis watches everything that loads at boot time, from the moment the
OS begins to load just after POST (Power On Self-Test) to the moment
you get to a usable Desktop. Some programs, most notably Norton
AntiVirus 2002, suck up valuable seconds before you can actually DO
anything even though you're at the Desktop. bootvis generates a trace
file that you load and can then "see" a visual representation of what's
happening. Every file, driver, hard drive read/write, etc., is
recorded. You can then use bootvis to optimize the loading of files
during the boot sequence. bootvis will rearrange the ways these very
files are stored on the hard drive, thereby improving the boot time
dramatically.
There You go
Enjoy !!!
