Slow boot?

[pulseezar]

I built a new system recently, specs are as follows:

Intel E8400
2 Gigs RAM
IP35 Pro Mobo

I use Vista Home Premium 64bit and ever since the word go I think the boot up time might be pretty slow. After the screen with the horizontal loading bar the screen will just go black for about 1 minute before the circular windows logo pops up and the login screen appears. I was just wondering if this is a fairly normal or not. Thanks for your help.

Somewhat "normal"~ish... Here's a list of some things you can do to get the start up as quick as you can:
