Re: Boot time taking 3.5 minutes at start-up

What is the comma for? ("notepad c:\Test.txt,") It should work, there are no commas, the proper command is:

ipconfig /all > c:\test.txt

This will send the output of the command to c:\test.txt

Well, it's like this: until I uninstalled the TCP/IP (per an earlier thread in this discussion), I was running splendidly. I use a Netgear Wireless PCI adapter (IP address: 169.254.34.80), connected to a Verizon router, which connects to the Internet via Fios cable. The uninstall (per the earlier thread) was to eliminate a TCPIP error, Event #4191, taken from the System Log. When I reinstalled TCP/IP, per the instructions, it obviously did not connect me back to the Internet.

When I typed in "notepad c:\Test.txt," the response stated that it could not file the file, and asked me if I wanted to create a new file. I answered NO.

This is because you left out the command. It should have been:
notepad c:\Test.txt

About the data you post: It reveals that the machine is set up to obtain its IP address automatically, and it's not happening. I cannot see how this PC can connect to the Internet (or, for that, to anything else). What means do you have to connect to the Internet? An ADSL modem/router? A cable modem? A dial-up connection? If it is one of the first two, what is the IP address of that device? It might be something like 192.168.1.1.

When I type in the command, I get a black background screen with about ten lines (?) of info for about one-half a second. Then, it disappears. How can one freeze the window display?

Also, is it okay to go ahead and delete all of the Netware stuff?

Yes, you don't need any of the netware stuff. From a command prompt;

ipconfig /all

Please post unedited result.

I seem to be getting deeper into trouble.

I uninstalled the TCP/IP (pertaining to Event ID 4191). I went through Networking and Dial-Up, selected Local Area Network/Properties, but when I rebooted, I did not have the option of selecting TCP/IP, so I selected Client for Microsoft Networks and installed that. This gave me Client Service for NetWare, NWLink Net BIOS, NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS Compatible Transport Protocol, and AEGIS Protocol(IEEE 802.1x)v3.4.5.0.

I selected Client for Microsoft Networks again and found my way to Protocol, and selected TCP/IP and installed same. However, I still cannot connect to the Internet. I am hoping that I have a conflict with the added links shown above, and that by deleting one or more I can establish a network connection. Before continuing, I thought that I should touch base first.

FYI - I am using a Netgear wireless connection to a router.
