    unplug your dvd/cdrom and disable the ide controller in the bios and itll fly, that should leave you 10 seconds free to disable any unneeded programs/drivers on windows startup

    Open the laptop up and tell the little pixies to run faster so that the cogs turn quicker...

    Seriously without any knowledge of what spec the laptop is how do you expect us to answer your question? Besides this is in the wrong area it should be Hexus.Binaries
