Login time excessive. Does not hibernate

[eganders]

I have a Dell Latitude D830
Service Tag
B9G6MG1

Express sevice code
24515984161

My computer works fine as long as it is booted up and I have logged in
to my profile.

The problem appears to be that it does not hibernate properly and
takes about 5 minutes to log in to my profile. It boots up
normally.

Hibernate:
It starts to hibernate, but appears to hang up and never shuts the
drives or power off. After several minutes, I end up having to hold
the power button until it shuts down. This results in an improper
shutdown.

Excessive login time to my profile:
The computer boots up without a problem. When I login, however, it
may take 5 minutes to complete the login. I am sure there is some
“stay resident” program that must be causing this problem.

My questions on the hibernation problem are:

1. Can I view a log of the hibernation sequence to see what may be
preventing the hibernation to complete?
2. Do you have a written procedure to track down this problem?
3. Is there a log that the computer creates that may shed some light
on this?

My questions on the long login problem are:

1. Can the gadget sidebar have anything to do with the excessive login
time?
2. Is there any way I can view the steps of the login process to see
what is causing the long delay?
3. Do you have any written procedure that I can use to debug this
problem?

I am not sure what you are asking when you ask who I am talking to. I
have not discussed this with anyone yet. I have put the question to
the Dell support line, but I will probably not get a reply until
Monday. (Not really a problem since this has been going on for a
while).

I looked at the event viewer, but it does not really tell ME much.
There is an event ID, but what is a 4375 event ID? It has had 359
"events?" in the last 24 hours. Event ID 4372 has had 361 in the last
hour. I did execute a Windows update in the last couple of hours and
there were some errors in the updates which Windows "reverted".
Cute! Windows seems to be working as it did before the update,
however.
