Your Windows system gets slower and slower, boot time increases? That's an experience most of us PC users share. The main cause of a slow boot process is not a 'cluttered' or 'fragmented' Registry, but all the little programs, drivers and helper services that are installed intentionally and sometimes even without you noticing, and are all started at the same time when Windows boots. So in almost all cases the reason for a slow boot process is the hard drive struggling to deliver all the data required for starting these programs simultaneously. And defragmenting your boot drive unfortunately does not help much.
