I was having problems that I could not figure out with my computer, so I did a clean install of XP Pro. I also installed SP2 and SP3, and all subsequent updates. Now, it takes an unusually long time to boot to the desktop, especially the “loading personal settings” part. There is not much on the computer yet since I just reinstalled Windows, and I have ran several malware scans. Does anyone know what may be causing this?
