I installed windows 7 and it was file for weeks. Recently i created a 2nd user account, installed important updates, installed 1 game and AFAIK that is it. What did it? All three of theses doesnt seem they would cause logging in to take longer (maybe important updates did it?). It takes 90+ seconds to get a fully loaded desktop when it use to take ~30 second. Looking at msconfig and starup i see vmware, dtools, launchy and live messenger (msn). I know i had three of these and maybe all 4 during the last install
how can i find out what made loggin in slow?
-edit- i also installed visual studios rc1 team instead of beta2 and msvs 2008. But i hardly doubt msvs rc1 did it.
2What's your desktop background? (Serious question, there was a bug where a single-color background caused serious login lag, not sure if it's been fixed) – Phoshi – 2010-03-07T10:24:18.873
Phoshi's comment is good - this is a known issue and can add a good amount of time to get from login to desktop. – jtreser – 2010-03-07T12:02:17.187

HAHAHA! Are you serious about that actually being a known issue? Wow, I miss Windows even less now... – Alex – 2010-03-13T07:03:18.553
