 XP Start up - Pezzer
Takes soooooo long approx (4.5 mins), Ive checked ms config and prevented anything unnecessary starting up, I have put more RAM in - now 2GB. I have downloaded a boot log tool which seems to suggest to me that I have 5 instances of svchost.exe taking between 130 and 180 seconds and a couple of items relating to Avast also taking a long time.

I realise its quite and old machine (AMD 1.6Ghz) is there anything else i can try ?

many thanks
