Slow Startup: XP Pr

Recently, my XP Pro begun to take over 2 and a half
minutes to load (to get to the sign-in screen). I suspect
that one of the master root files or startup files is
corrupt. I reinstalled the operating system (not a total
reinstall, just a regular install), but still have the
same problem. When I first got XP Pro, it seemed to load
in about 30 seconds. Any advice would be helpful!

Thanks!

I have recently started to have the same problem it
seemed to worsen when I installed SP1...
In my case I have found that explorer reguarly freezes
and has to be restarted...As this pc has not yet been
connected to the internet I doubt it is a virus...
Just wonder if it is the same problem???

Cheers!
