I'm a Windows XP Home (SP2) user and for about three weeks I'm getting
extremely slow boot times. I've tried all the usual measures, scoured
usenet groups and am still stumped. Here is the problem:
-no problem getting to and beyond the windows xp splash screen
-load time to get to user account (logon) page about 5 minutes
-once loaded, when I click on any user account, it takes a further
minute before it starts booting. Clicking multiple times on the user
account does not solve the problem
-once beyond the user account, it boots normally, with no further
problems
-if I try to switch users (without logging out of my account), I again
encounter the slowness - it take me over a minute to reach the user
access page
I've tried:
-looking at the events console, and there are no reports of unusual
activity
-updated all drivers, and have found no hardware failures
-scanned the computer for malware, virsuses, etc. - nada
Any ideas?
