XP SP3 Home freezes at Welcome screen once.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

A friend has Win XP SP3 Home. Machine is almost brand new [under 4 months
old]. There is only one user account.

Out of the blue, when my friend booted up, it got stuck at the "Welcome"
screen [the one with the "Welcome" word at the center of the screen]. And it
sat there for about 25-30 minutes until I arrived.

Had to do a hard shutdown [hold the pwer button down]. Rebooted and
everything was fine. No flags in the event log or anything.
