aszinn Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) It happens pretty frequently. The boot up time varies from 1 minute to 8 minutes. It is really ridiculous. I have an event log of it going for 497 seconds and I find that disturbing. I'll do another trace as soon as I get to school.[edit]http://www.mediafire.com/file/iqghzjfua0gy1li/boot_BASE+CSWITCH+DRIVERS+POWER_1.etlhttp://www.mediafire.com/file/u5b3tlofqgqso45/summary_boot.xmlI've noticed that the PreSMSS took much longer than the SMSSInit this time instead of vice versa. What is going on? Edited April 29, 2011 by aszinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 it takes 365s to access the the NTFS USN Journal folder C:\$Extend\$UsnJrnl:$Jso it is again a HDD issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aszinn Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Hm, well the problem now is that the diagnostic tools are not picking up the errors... I don't want to open it up because I'm afraid of breaking the laptop as a whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaoticyeshua Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) I hate to be a bother, but I was linked to this thread in a thread that I created in the Windows 7 forum to help resolve an issue I am having with sleep/standby. When I put my PC to sleep, it will not resume. It appears that all fans begin to spin, hard drives spin up, but I receive no video output. I also am not able to ping my PC. Someone suggested tracing the process, but it looks like no data is really even made that would be helpful. If anyone here is knowledgable on the subject, could you please read my posts on the thread I linked below and help me if you are able?Thank you in advance for any assistance.

MagicAndre1981 Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 I need the ETL file: boot_BASE+CSWITCH+DRIVERS+POWER_1.etl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin79 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I stumbled upon this thread when I was researching an issue I'm having. For whatever reason, my laptop is slow to boot and resume from sleep. I performed the trace on boot and also sleep and zipped them all up then uploaded them to my skydrive. The links are below. I had to split the file in order to meet the SkyDrive upload limits. I'll also PM you the zip password. I didn't include +DRIVERS in my traces because it caused a BSOD. If need be, I can try it again though.Any help would be greatly appreciated.My Files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicAndre1981 Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 Have you installed the mobile version of the AMD 11.5 driver? There is a version for desktop, for mainbaord IGPs and for notebooks.This is the latest Intel graphic card driver:http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=19940〈=eng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 it is a bit better:timing bootDoneViaExplorer="101374" bootDoneViaPostBoot="132174" osLoaderDuration="2325" postBootRequiredIdleTime="10000" postBootDisturbance="20800"booting to the desktop takes 101s and Windows is booted completely in 122s.<interval name="PreSMSS" startTime="0" endTime="14782" duration="14782"><phase name="systemStart" startTime="3915" endTime="14526" duration="10610"> <pnpObject name="SRTSP" type="Driver" activity="Load" startTime="4392" endTime="6770" duration="2377" prePendTime="2377" /> <pnpObject name="\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\SRTSP" type="unknown" activity="unknown" startTime="4413" endTime="6770" duration="2356" prePendTime="2356" /> again, the Symantec drivers are a bit slow. The SMSSInit phase still takes too long. The time difference between both csrss.exe shows me that loading the graphic drivers still takes too long.<interval name="SMSSInit" startTime="14782" endTime="42792" duration="28010"><interval name="WinlogonInit" startTime="42792" endTime="95105" duration="52312">- <winlogon numNotifications="3">- <notification type="CreateSession" sessionId="1" startTime="57585" endTime="66330" duration="8745"> <subscriber name="GPClient" startTime="57585" endTime="66328" duration="8743" />the group policies take 8.8 seconds which is faster but the WinlogonInit phase takes too long becasue RequestCredentials takes 24 seconds. Type in the password faster. The starting the services is faster: <services autoStartStartTime="54591" autoStartEndTime="81762" autoStartDuration="27171">the applications at startup take 20 to finish. i can see that the memory usage is extremely high (2GB in use at the boot time). Look if you can remove more tools and if you can update Symantec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin79 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Thanks. Any idea why resuming from sleep is so slow? If I sleep and resume right away (or within an hour or so), the logon screen pops right up. However, if I put it to sleep when I leave work in the evening and then resume in the morning, it takes a long time for the logon screen to come up.

Look if you can remove more tools and if you can update Symantec.What is the best way to find out what applications/services are using the memory. Task Manager doesn't seem to show me all of the memory allocations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 I have no idea about the sleep issue.disable the hybrid sleep and use hibernation.Run RAMMap after Windows is booted, save the data and upload the zipped data. I can't see this from the trace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
