I've got a lot boot process that hangs for it seems 5 minutes while running
start-up scripts. The only way to get it to log right in quickly is to
disable the workstation service, which obviously causes other problems.

I'm running WinXP SP1 on a Win2k domain.

I used bootvis.exe to log my boot process but it doesn't pinpoint what the
exact hold up is. Only that 1.5 min is in shell exec stage and 5 minutes
for Logon/services stage.

How can I see what part of either the startup script or shell exec,
logon/services are holding me up?
