Sounds like a network timeout delay.

I think that PC boots up slow is because of installing too many
softwares,
A lot of softwares all will start with the system, Should delete their
start procedure.
Or Have two with the system start of the software have conflict
open the regedit "Start---Run" input "regedit" find this address:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\Setup

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
if you os is XPor Win2003 , "Start--Run" input "msconfig" -- "startup"
delete otiose procedure.

Thanks. I will check those registry entries but problem went away by itself.
I do not know if I will find anything.
