Suddenly, and for no apparent reason, it now is taking
between 8-10 minutes for windows to get from the splash
screen to the loading settings screen, then from there it
takes another 3-5 minutes to load the desktop and startup
programs. Once running most programs work fine exept
memory intensive ops take forever to start, if at all...
any suggestions?
 
Have you checked the system event log for errors

start/run
eventvwr.msc

Click system in left hand pane.
Any white crosses on red circular background ?

Look for any hardware errors particlularly timeouts or crc or partity
errors.

Look for services persistently trying to restart.

Post any errors which seem relevant.
