Try going into msconfig and clearing up startup files.
Here's what I leave running in msconfig. Click start, click run and then type "msconfig" and click ok. Put a dot in "selective startup" then remove the check marks from "process autoexec.bat file" and "process config.sys file" then remove the check mark from "load startup group items". Click the win.ini tab at the top right of the screen and click the plus sign next to "windows". Remove the check marks from anything that has "run=" or "load=". Click the startup tab on the top right and then put the these check marks back in. scanregistry, systemtray, loadpowerprofile(there are two of these, check them both), your antivirus software. For windows ME add these as well, *statemgr and pchealth. Click apply the OK, Restart when prompted.
