You don't have enough details included here. Just how long is the boot, and
can you describe it step by step? I just went thru a similar thing and
I -think- it was some sort of conflict between Norton, Sygate, and the LAN.
When fixed, boot time went from near 5 minutes to 53 seconds, including
inputting user password.
Have you done a virus check? With what? Adware/spyware check? With what?
Check Event Viewer for any hints that might show up. Etc.
Then come back with a better descrip if you can.
