Occasional boot delay

[yannisg]

Win/7 32 bit. Quite often boot time is too long. This happens whether I disable all items in the start up tab or not. Looking into the event view log, windows system log, whenever the delay occurs (3 minutes) it is between “kernel-processor-power” and “service control manager” (plug and play entered running state).
Is the delay from the kernel processor power or from the plug and play devices? In the past I have disconnect everything except the mouse and keyboard, but the condition was the same.

Any solution or more info to troubleshoot is appreciated.

Did this computer originally come installed with Windows 7? Is this a laptop

Hi Tmagic650,
It's not a laptop, and it didn't originally come with win/7. It had win/xp. I did not have this problem for a long time after installing (full install) win/7.
Thanks,

Do you see any yellow exclamation points in the device manager? Is Windows 7 fully updated?
