Quite agree, KM. Cleaning out your registry can be a big help (and system mechanic is a great little prog)
As Taz mentioned, bootvis would give you a much better idea of what is going on. I don't think you can download it from MS anymore, but I've got a copy-if you need it I can Email it to you (968kb file)
*EDIT* I have had similar problems with a gamesurround Muse XL sound card driver...it DOES NOT play nice with XP. Was taking almost two full minutes to boot. Got a new sound card and haven't had a problem since.
