It can be many things , are you on a network?,software like Norton checking the machine
or any program that runs the machine b/4 it gives you control, if you did a upgrade
from win98se to win2k,having to many programs loading up at windows startup,the reg
file over loaded with junk items listed,etc.
This is what I would try just to start with.
If you are on a network pull the plug on the cat.5 cable.
Download Startup CPL and see what you have loading up at boot and turn some of them
Off until you find the one that's holding you back.

Startup Control Panel is a nifty control panel applet that allows you to easily
configure which programs run when your computer starts.
A valuable tool for system administrators!
Startup Control Panel is compatible with all modern versions of Windows, including
Windows 95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP.
Plus it's FreeWare
-----------------------------
You can also use
Start/Run msconfig but you will need to download it also or get a copy of a XP machine.
