My laptop takes forever to start, and the HD-ikon is blinking so I suppose it has to do with that? :noidea: Could it be that the PC has too many start-up-programs? (I wouldn`t know what to delete, if so!) I also thinks it takes to long for it to shut down. Regards Ingjerd Attachments Capture 1.JPG 21 KB · Views: 3 Capture 2.JPG 15.1 KB · Views: 2

Extract the zip and run Autoruns or Autoruns64. In Autoruns, click File and choose Save. Save it as ARN on your desktop, this could take a while. Go to your desktop, right click the ARN file and choose Send to and select Compressed (zipped) folder. Upload the zip folder.

Also, if you don't need Java I would recommend to remove it. What laptop model do you have?
