Cloney was real close to solving the problem. All of the above changes work... You need to do one more little thing Cloney, compare the list of keys in the registry listing to the one that is actually being opened when you click on start/programs. You will notice 1 or more that don't exist anymore. Windows is trying to find them in the background while you are waiting. Thanks for getting me started though. I was trying everything (turned off all checks in the performance settings menu, switched to classic mode XP) once I got into the registry to check everything out, I noticed the menu wasn't the same. Once I deleted all of the old keys, it sped it up big time. Thanks again... good luck to all.. -Jim P. IT System Administrator
