Maybe...
Noticed any suspicious from the task manager ?

How's the boot time now ?

or easier way to find the problem, see the list on the performance analyzer, which processes that delay too much..
or use this, http://www.soluto.com/
It will display all the processes in the boot with their delay...

im mote sure about the unsecapp.exe process, there r 2 of them each time i start windows...

currently downloading something from hotfile.com so i cant restart my machine yet

unsecapp.exe is fine, mine sometime have it also..

sometimes its very scary to see some of the processes have 2 instances in the task manager at the same time further more, its the same name.

i personally think that its the boot processes and from what i remembers, upon entering the logon through the complete start of the processes for windows it would be normal for me

i wonder y my laptop right now is quite hot... didnt run anything from what i remember that would make this machine goes hot

See the temp ? Which one is >50C ? CPU or GPU? HDD ?

its the cpu, constant 60'c

Check the task manager ?
The CPU usage?

Still virus scanning ?

no virus scanning

cpu usage is around 5-40%... the gap r wide. avg is right around 20%

See which processes take that up the CPU usage ?

if u were saying under the cpu column, it would be firefox but i dont think firefox r able to make this machine under such a stress. the figures r around 4-10 or sometimes 20 but quite rare...

im going to reboot after soluto finish up

I do mean the CPU column...
But at least, the firefox do contribute to the cpu usage..

owh... one of the factor also due to the area of my machine, which is no fan in where i sit with my laptop right now but still, i feel like its an unusual thing for my laptop to go hot without anything opened to stress this thing...

There's nothing blocking the vent on the bottom side, right ?

no... solid flat wood desk... used soluto and going to restart my pc for some changes if its true... spotted this norton ghost took a huge amount of time 170sec and tweaked some of the application and services into delay and pause, able to get about 2m 47s from soluto's boot estimation

2m 47s is still long though...
Is this still include the norton ghost ?

actual thing is 3:45mins recorded by soluto, the ghost already turned off. should i run the wpt again? i was considering of using the last resort for this, revert back to either factory default, using the recovery dvd+crapware cleaner+soluto+wpt, or clean format or use the ghost checkpoint

WPT should be run after everything has been done, no more program installation/uninstallation and such...
Its the final part...

Well, best result would be clean install + launch manager, that is enough, no need other acer apps...

Nothing more can be disabled from soluto ?

nothing more... other 154sec lies on the grey side of soluto which most of them r services...

do u have any programs that can back up applications registry settings?

ERUNT is usually used to backup registry, but not sure whether it will work for Win 7 or not...

ok... i'll do the clean+launch manager this weekend i think but i had to redownload the patches and av updates later... i download before the actual formats...

so... i will install all drivers and some softwares required and put some as manual services, disable them upon startup, optimize use soluto and then use wpt is that it?
