dual boot ubuntu 9.04 and XP, both (OS)s are slow to load after, I edited the grub boot loader file in ubuntu
good morning everyone:
This is my grub boot loader, for a dual boot ubuntu 9.04 and Win XP pro, after I edited it yesterday evening.
I had a duplicate line of Win XP in boot menu, and ubuntu had become my default OS.
Now they both work, duplicate line of XP is gone, XP is default again. boot menu is nice and clean.
Just one problem. They both load very slowly.
How could I fix the loading speed of My (OS)s?

# grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8),
# grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub
# and /usr/share/
## default num
# Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
# the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
#
# You can specify 'saved' instead of a number. In this case, the default entry
# is the entry saved with the command 'savedefault'.
# WARNING: If you are using dmraid do not use 'savedefault' or your
# array will desync and will not let you boot your system.
default 0
## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 10
## hiddenmenu
# Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu)

# If used in the first section of a menu file, disable all interactive editing
