Windows hangs around at startup
Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance
I have a user who claims he has changed nothing, but his system has taken to
having a wee rest at startup.
It boots to the login screen fine (XP Pro connected to a 2003 Server
network), but once you enter the login details it brings up the desktop
without any icons, and just sits there with no disc activity for about 2
minutes, then goes on to finishing the boot up.
Has anybody encountered this before? If so is there a fix? I have already
checked for viruses etc..
