when i boot up i get the C:\ three times in a row..i'm sure it's taking more time to boot up because of it, but i don't know what to do to remove it.....thanks!
 
Check your autoexec.bat file. Remove any unnecessary lines
 
Not taking any extra time that you will ever measure.
Evidently you have used edit to modify your autoexec.bat.
Edit, when closing, will append up to 3 blank lines to reach what it considers a valid end.
You can add fill spaces at other places in the file to bring the end of file closer to edit's chosen end of file. This will resolve the issue. Ed Fair
