Hello, 6 days ago i have bought a new HP 17.3" Pavilion G7-2003SD - i7 3612QM/4GB/500GB AMD Radeon HD7670M , but the overall speed dissapoint me a little. So after i have followed these (http://www.pcmtechhelp.com/2011/07/16/20-amazing-windows-7-performance-boosting-tips-in-under-10-minutes/) steps to increase overall speed, the boot speed was still slow. After some searching i saw this topic and followed your steps. Boot time increased from Bootdoneviapostboot= 200270 to Bootdoneviapostboot=102626 , but even after that ik takes long to go from the login screen to the desktop. So i am wondering if the steps that i followed (and the results above) were only for the boot time to your login screen or the ''total time'' from start up to desktop? And how can i inprove the speed from login screen to desktop and is it normal for an new notebook to have this kind of problems or should i bring it back? Thank you for your help, Yannick
