I have two identical Gateway Computers (home and office) with identical
software loaded on both. (Windows XP; SP3). Norton AV. Adobe Acrobat. MS
Office 2003. Windows Defender. Other usual stuff. Both registries cleaned
up. Hard disks defragged. Scan and boot functions turned off NAV and
Defender.
The home computer boots in a reasonable amount of time.
The office computer takes about 5 minutes with the disk light on steady for
the full time.
Where do I start looking to find the office computer problem? Are there
*.logs that will help? Any thoughts based on experience? Note that once
the office computer is up and running, it is fine.
Are the nav.dat files on both machines identical? It's possible that the
one machine is using a version that's more screwed up than the one on the
other machine.
