It is always the same procedure whenever you turn on your computer: Windows starts, displays the logo, looks for folders and printers in a local network, tries to auto-detect new hardware through the IDE channels and - as if that would not already be enough - starts 3rd party programs, even if that would not be necessary. That is valuable time you are wasting in front of your computer! Then, when you shut down the machine, it is nearly the same: Windows XP checks for running programs, tries to find out if the hardware is able to be turned off in the end, tries to close active services for 20 seconds if necessary and does the same with running programs. That is again time consumption that would not be necessary! This valuable time that you should better spend with more important things in your life can now be given back to you by FastWin.
