I had a problem where my machine took about 3 to 5 minutes to boot up with XP. It
turned out that the problem occurred with a conflict in my network connections between
the broadband connection (created when installing software provided by my internet
provider) and a network connection associated with my ethernet card.
I solved the problem by going into device manager, right clicked on the ethernet
card under network adapters and properties. I then deselected the all the boxes
that were checked that contained TCP protocols etc. Now rebooting takes less than
30 seconds!
I believe the problem developed following one of the XP updates.
