XP Pro 2002 SP3
It's been OK for ages. Now, at the black screen "resuming... press F8 for advancad options..." it takes about 5 minutes to get to a login screen. Functionality appears perfectly normal during subsequent use.
Earlier, I had a problem with some sort of Win HDD scareware, so installed Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware free version, and ran a procedure detailed at:
www.myantispyware.com/2010/11/27/how-to-remove-win-hdd-uninstall-instructions/
after having broken the scareware sufficiently to allow running of executables.
Ran Atribune's ATF cleaner, then MalwareBytes Anti-malware. Mmm. But not in "safe mode".
Any ideas?
