Slow Load - Boot Log Repetition
in [Windows Performance]
|
From: TheScullster on 5 Mar 2010 05:27 Hi all I have a user whose Dell laptop is painfully slow at loading past the Windows XP splash screen. Looking at the boot log, there are a number of drivers which are not loading, but it looks like these are looping. Below is an excerpt from the log -------------------------------------------------- Did not load driver ACPI Multiprocessor PC Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs Did not load driver WAN Miniport (L2TP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (IP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPPOE) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPTP) Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Direct Parallel Did not load driver SIMATIC SoftBus Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs Did not load driver WAN Miniport (L2TP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (IP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPPOE) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPTP) Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Direct Parallel Did not load driver SIMATIC SoftBus Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Microsoft AC Adapter Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs Did not load driver WAN Miniport (L2TP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (IP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPPOE) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPTP) Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Direct Parallel Did not load driver SIMATIC SoftBus Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Microsoft AC Adapter Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs Did not load driver WAN Miniport (L2TP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (IP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPPOE) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPTP) Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Direct Parallel Did not load driver SIMATIC SoftBus Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Microsoft AC Adapter Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs Did not load driver WAN Miniport (L2TP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (IP) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPPOE) Did not load driver WAN Miniport (PPTP) Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Packet Scheduler Miniport Did not load driver Direct Parallel Did not load driver SIMATIC SoftBus Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Intel Processor Did not load driver Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family Did not load driver Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family Did not load driver Microsoft AC Adapter Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery Did not load driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery --------------------------------------------------------- There are a number of drivers in the complete boot log which fail to load over 100 times!! Is this the cause of the slow Windows load? If so, how do I decide which driver is at fault and how to eradicate the problem. Thanks Phil

Easiest/fastest fix... Visit the Dell Support (Drivers) download page for that system (by service tag) and show all drivers for it and download/install all the latest drivers for all the devices in the system. Including the System BIOS update. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
