Thanks, but I fixed the problem. Long boot ups (even shutdowns) or hangups
are usually due to hardware or device driver issues. After a testing each of
my drivers, I discoverd the root cause was my sound card driver. There was a
conflict with my motherboard's built in sound drivers. So disabling all
those motherboard drivers solved the problem. Making sure all devices have
SIGNED Windows XP drivers also help boot times.
 
Being somewhat of a novice, I would like to know how to do
the 3 things you mention: (1) test drivers (2) discover
driver conflicts (3) determine whether drivers are signed.
I would appreciate the info or specific links to the "how
to"

Thanks, Dan
