MagicAndre, thanks a ton for this tutorial. I have been having issues with the delay in boot right after windows splash, before the login screen, lastas apporx 45 secs. I have an ssd so this is bothersom for me. it ha sonly recently started. Using your tutorial I think I was able to trace the issue to the winlogininit section and specifcally the rpcss service, Howver, I am unable to get my graph layout to the easy to read one you show with your screen shots. I like the layout of those. Could you take alook at my xml and etl file and tell me what you think? I can post here or pm it to you. Thanks again.
