    Anyone know of a good boot logging program for Windows XP (freeware or shareware)? I am using BootVis but would like a more detailed view of what's going on during the boot process.

    Thanks in advance,

    Thanks for the tip. I did download and try the little software. It showed all the registry calls and was informative but I am really looking for something that can either graphically or otherwise show me the boot sequence and the time it takes for each service to load. I'm having a real problem finding out why it's taking so long to boot Windows XP.
    I have searched 'high and low' trying to find something but so far have come up empty handed. I sure would be nice to see something like that when bootups and shutdowns take excessive times.

    Thanks again,
    Dusterpilot

    Have you tried Bootvis - no longer available from MS it would seem, but can be downloaded via the link. This does give a graphical representation of the boot sequence.

    Took a look at it but it does only work on 95/98.... Thanks anyway. I'll continue to look.
