Bootup Time

[Guest]

My computer takes for ever to boot. When windows loads it takes a further
2mins
before I can use the computer.
I have tried Virius scans and defrag but no help.

Please someone help??

Could be a bunch of spyware; download Adaware from Lavasoft
& do a scan. If it finds a bunch, next go get Spybot Search
& Destroy and run that.
