Dear Sajha Friends My laptop takes a long time to boot. Initially it was good. I did check online and disable all on msconfig startup, as told by some...and it worked very fast. but the problem was even the sound system in laptop got disable. So i had to enable them all. Can you please suggest the things i can disable and the things i cannot.
