Re: acer aspire 9300 slow to boot up

Almost any computer with 512 MB of RAM running Vista will be slow to boot up. You can upgrade your RAM or reinstall XP. I would personally do both. The only problem you might encounter is Acer not providing XP drivers for that model.

If you want to keep Vista, I would start by disabling as many services as possible that you don't need. Also, disable as many of the startup programs as possible.
