Microsoft's spyware. You need to allow MS operating system to load
everything so that this monolithic conglomerate can keep check on you to
ensure its products are not pirated by you.

That is all there is to it. Why else would the operating system take
ages to load?

Hi
If your computers are connected to a Router and obtain their IP from the
Router DHCP. Take a look if the Router's DHCP can be set to provide the same
IP the same computer each time it boots. (Aka reserved IP, or static DHCP)
