Load sequence

By Doug | November 20th, 2008 | 9:00 am

First, I;m running the latest Beta version.  No problems so far (XP Pro SP3, 2GB RAM, IBM T43/p laptop).

My question concerns the load sequence at startup.  To get the full benefit of eBoostr during startup, it should load as early as possible in the load sequence.  The problem is, I’ve found that it doesn’t always, depending on how quickly I log on to my user profile during startup.  If I log on as soon as the logon button displays, eBoostr loads almost immediately and I get the full benefit of it.  But if I don’t logon immediately, my computer seems to begin loading programs from another load script and doesn’t get to eBoostr for some time.  This unnecessarily extends my boot time.  Is there a way to ensure that eBoostr always loads first (for example, loading it as a service)?

    eBoostr does load as a service (EBstrSvc.exe), only the Control Panel app (eBoostrCP.exe, which doesn’t do the magic, and can be disabled from the startup folder, if preferred) loads later.
