Hi,
Whenever I start up my computer, it takes 30 minutes for
windows to load. The screen briefly shows the system
details before showing a thick horizontal white dotted
line across the bottom of the screen. This line slowly
joins up and 30 minutes later, windows is loaded. Any
clues before my laptop needs flying lessons.

Thanks.
