        <description><![CDATA[I know it may be an obvious point, but XP can be very slow to start up if it doesn't have sufficient RAM. An absolute minimum is 512MB, but that is with no additional  software or drivers. I had a laptop running XP with 1GB of RAM. Adding 2GB (for a total of 3GB) significantly improved startup times (as well as running much better once booted).]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[You can use Msconfig to see if any drivers/services are hanging at startup which slows you laptop considerably. Open Msconfig then disable everything from starting at startup. Restart your laptop and if it starts much quicker then re-enable each item and re-start the laptop, untill you find the startup item that is the culprit then delete it and if you need it re-install it.  If no startup items are to blame then do exactly the same with the Services Tab, if that makes no difference thenyou need CCleaner and Kingsoft Pc Doctor and give your machine a good clean out.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Msconfig looks different in XP, I don't see the same functionality. My laptop takes over 5min to boot, that's 300 seconds, an eternity for a processor.   I just use Standby for weeks, till the poor machine can't take it anymore. Any help would be appreciated.]]></description>
