xp reboot problems after format

Hi
I have formatted my c drive and reinstalled all drivers, all fine. Installed windows
updates online. Then installed SP2 from a cd, installs fine. On reboot the system
takes 7 mins + to start up. I see the inital bios details, etc first (as normal),
then instead of going to the windows emblem and blue progress bar, the screen goes
black and after a minute or so, a white progress bar appears at the bottom and sits
there for about 6mins, gets half way along and then continues normally to desktop.
Everything seems to work ok except a seriously lengthy start up.
I have formatted again and again and reinstalled everything is fine until I install
SP2, same thing every time.
Please help
Thanks
