Hi there siross,

Bootvis is a Boot performance trace visualization tool for use with Windows
XP systems. It gives a graphical view of what processes are doing what and
when during boot and allow you to optimize your boot up. A very handy tool.

I don't believe Microsoft provides BootVis anymore but it is available
from other sites. Just type "Bootvis" into your search engine [Google is
best] and you will find it.
