I would like to know why my freshly installed slipstreamed xp w/ service pack 2 takes so much time to load up when i turn the computer on.
Firstly, it comes up with this white loading bar which takes about 3/4 of a minute, then it comes up with the regular xp loading screen which takes another minute or so.
I've just formatted as well, and my computer has 1 gb of ram and a 1.7ghz processor. Every other time i formatted with service pack one saw very rapid boot ups, about 20 seconds - now its just unacceptably slow.
