fully takes like 20-45 sec b4 they fully appear with color & all. I ran
bootvis & also set to adjust for best performance & still does it. I
defraged & all & no dice. Is there a setting so my icons appear fully when I
first boot up? I also uncecked the search for automaticly search for network

You may have too many programs starting at logon, a virus or a user account
corruption.
1.
To manually select applications startup at logon go to Start > run >(type)
msconfig > Startup (tab). Uncheck all programs you donot need. This will
speed things up.
2.Check for virus with [insert antivirus app. here].
3.
Sometimes user accounts slowly become corrupted and eventually may stop
working. Your problem is most likely 1 or 2 and not 3.

There are things you can try:
try "Startup list 2.1 from http://www.merijn.org/programs.php#startuplist
and copy the file into Start > all programs > start (folder) - this will run
at logon . This will take some time to sort through but will show every
process at startup.

When you are done with this utility remove it from the startup folder or it
will run everytime you start your user account.
