Editing The Registry (note if your not comfortable within the Registry leave it, and if you do implement this edit do back up your Registry first)

Menu Speed Up

Purpose - Performance

Start > Run > type regedit > OK > in Registry Editor open - HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop

Highlight the folder Desktop and in the lefthand pane look for MenuShowDelay then double click it, the Edit dialog box will open then enter 100 - default is 400 then click OK, close the registry and re-boot. The difference in speed is instant

For Windows XP Home / Pro & Vista all versions.
