Against my better judgement, I should have put SP2 on my machine, it
is really slow booting now, sucks to be me. PArt of it is the blasted
startup screen with user names, how can I get rid of this?
It is extremely unlikely that displaying the Welcome Screen is causing your issues. However, it is easy enough to use the classic logon. Go to Control Panel>User Accounts>Change the way users log on. Uncheck "Use the Welcome Screen" and "Fast User Switching".
If you'd like help doing a real diagnosis of your computer's problems after installing SP2, we'll need more information about your machine. In the meantime, here are some SP2-related links:
