Just recently - Maybe over the last 2 weeks my OS has became rather slow during restart loading times.
I'm currently running XP, and before this little issue came about it took at the most 2 minutes for my computer to shutdown, and restart back to my desktop and become fully functional again. However now it takes 5 minutes to get pass the "welcome" screen. What is the cause of this, anyone know a way to resolve this problem?
I've defraged my computer since this has happened. Nothing came of it, as far as im aware no new software was installed. I'm pretty sure i could reformat, however i would have to reinstall everything. Im not up to that challenge, i just got my system set up how i like it. Any suggestions would be appriciated.
