When I turn on my PC, I get a blue screen that
says "Windows is starting up..." It will stay like that
for 20 or more minutes, before I am finally taken to my
login screen. Any clue? Please someone help me, I'm
desperate!!! :(
 
There are probably hundreds of things that could cause
this. No one pill will cure it. SUGGESTIONS:
=============================================
Update device/program drivers (If updated operating
system).

Clean out Temporary Internet Files. (regularly)
Limit size of Temporary Internet Files.

Dump all of the files in your TEMP folder. (regularly)

Run a defrag on your hard drive to get all the files back
in order. (Monthly)

Keep up with your Anti-Virus updates. (regularly)

Back-up/purge your DATA. You can replace programs
but your DATA means hours of work for you to input all
the old information.

Found this on Symantec doc ID 2003100708212113 10/10/2003

This may be the answer to my slow start ups and to others
I have been reading.

Computer restart is slow after installing Common Client
1.09 update

Situation:
You ran LiveUpdate and downloaded the Common Client 1.09
update. After restarting the computer, you notice that it
takes much longer for Windows to open than it did before
you installed the update.

Solution:
Symantec is investigating this problem. The cause is
unknown, and there is no solution at this time. This
document will be updated when new information becomes
available or a solution is found.
