Product Description:

Startup Doubler can make your Mac startup faster, closer to the maximum speed allowed by the hardware. Startup Doubler's software acceleration streamlines loading of Extensions, Control Panels, Startup Items and the Finder to improve startup times.

Startup Doubler is most useful for pre-G4 Macs, where startup can be made 10% to 50% faster. Fast disks in new high-end Macs can't be accelerated much, but the free trial offer lets you find out what effect Startup Doubler can have on your exact setup.

What's new in this version:

Version 2.7b1 includes changes to prevent a rare startup freeze which happens on some systems with Virtual Memory. It also fixes a missing control panel icon bug.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS Classic

Additional Requirements:

  • System 7.x or higher
