Operating system you will like to use. And 30 seconds countdown start. Look at
the picture in blue mark. When I start my computer "Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" show in first then "Microsoft Windows XP professional(TuneUP
Backup)" show in second
Now if I want to change the queue 1 to 2nd position, I have to just move down "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" using Move Down options in here.
In Timeout option change the value as you like. It will show a countdown when your computer start.
/SAFEBOOT : if you use this option your computer start in SAFE MODE after restart. You may also go to safe mode using F8 when computer start.
/NOGUIBOOT : If you use this option no Graphical User Interface(GUI) will show when computer start.
/BOOTLOG : This option helps you to log Boot process in Ntbtlog.txt file in systemroot folder.
/BASEVIDEO : Use this options if you suspect that your computer is not working because of PCI driver problem. This option helps you login your computer in Standard Video Graphics Adapter(VGA). After login to your computer you can repair PCI Driver.

Now go to Service options
In this options you can change the services behaviour when your computer start. Modify the services at your own responsibility. Because various kinds of services start at windows startup because of various users configuration.
Now move to Startup option
Startup options helps you configure program startup behaviour when your
computer start. Disable the unnecessary startup program from being launch at
startup. One of the main reasons to take long time when your computer login,
because many program start automatically when your computer start.You have to Enable or Disable Startup program by own responsibility because it differs from
users to users configurations.
Normal Startup helps you to load all device drivers and services
Diagnostic Startup helps you to load only basic devices and services only. If you face any problem to start your computer in normal mode, you can use this options.
Selective Startup helps you to use your own like.
