Hi. My P.C. has got terribly slow on morning start-up. During the
day I go into hibernate or stand-by and I have no problem. I know
that I have only 0.99 Mb of RAM but I also have 52 shortcuts on my
desktop - some of which I do not use very often. Are these shortcuts
slowing me up when I start first thing in thye morning ?
Regards, Anthony. PS. Any other suggestions ??

First by start up you mean the part after logging onto windows till it finally stops loading?
What operating system do you use? xp? vista? win7? 1GB RAM could be few for a vista but more than enough for xp.. so it matters what operating system your using, might also be some start up programs and stuff, so please tell us more about your system configuration.

Thank you for your reply.  My lap-top runs on the Acer System and Windows XP. Home eddition 2002, Service Pack 3, with Intel Celeron(R)  and Celeron(R)M processor  1.5Ghz. 1.5 Ghz 0.99 Mb RAM .
The PC has all the usual programs installed by the supllier as well as Word, Excell, two photo processors, Spybot, Norton and the drivers for the printer.  I hope that this will help. Regards, Anthony.

It might be norton, norton is usualy a heavy program that takes quite some RAM and some time to start up i think, i don't remember well because i don't use it since a long time. If you can try t0 disable norton to start up with windows and see if windows starts up faster.
