will this help
dell 4500-win.xp home 2.0ghz-256 mem. at start up there is a slight hesitation when clicking on one of the users, there are 5 of us, would it help to stop microsoft office and epson status monitor, microsoft calender, and any thing else thats not needed at startup from running and if so whats the easiest way to do it? Thanks
There is a slight moment between switching users... It takes my computer about 4 seconds to switch to another user on a cold startup...
But if you switch users numeriously without restarting your computer, then the time to switch between users decreases... It should only take a split second to switch back to another user, if you switch numeriously....(this is because the informaiton is being saved and opened up by the memory, not the hard drive)

Make sure that Fast User Switching is enabled (Start|Control Panel|User Accounts|Change the way users log on or off).
