you can also get microsoft bootvis (not supported by MS anymore, so just google for it) Its a program that moniors the startup sequence and physically moves the data onthe hard drive so its grouped, this way its all accessed faster.. If your looking for a hardware solution, opt for more RAM.

ya ive heard alot about boot vis also try clearing MSCONFIG with everything unchecked besides your AV and firewall. MSCONFIG is the first step you need to take before 3rd party software.
