recently i disabled a bunch of services i didn't need.
the system runs fine since disabling but for some reason i've now got a 15 or so second wait before my login name and password dialogue comes up ... just sits there at the "Windows is starting up..." message and the pops the login slots up about 15 seconds later.
prior to my work on disabling services, as soon as the blue winXP screen came up, the login slots appeared immediately.
i seem to remember a reg hack somewhere that caused all start up services to load in the background and thereby allow the actual login credentials slots to be displayed much faster.
i've read most optimization faqs and can't seem to find what the mysterious change is from.
any ideas?
