boot up, win xp

Hi when i boot up win xp on my computer it takes a couple of minutes to get
to the point where everything is loaded.The desktop comes up right away but
I have to wait for a min or so to start using windows. My tray icons for my
antivirus and nvidia card dont load to tray anymore. I have a DSL modem with
a random ip from verizon , is that what slowing the boot up?

A couple of months ago I changed my mobo from nv3 to nv4 pci-e but used the
same harddrive with old winxp. I just reinstalled the chipset and graphic
drivers. I had the slow boot with the other mobo too.

Is there a way I can speed up my boot time because I frequently cant resume
from suspend to ram standby due to monitor not powerout of standby. Thanks

Peter
