slow boot

I recently installed Vista on my laptop and I'm finding the boot time
to be very slow. Most of the delay happens during the blue-ish screen
where it says "Please Wait" before the message changes to "CTRL-ALT-
DEL to login". This portion of the startup takes several minutes. I
know this is not terribly long, but it's much longer than XP takes to
boot on the same machine. Here's my specs:

Dell Latitude D800
2 GB RAM
Pentium M processor 2.00 gHz
60 GB hard drive (divided into 2 partions - one for Vista, one for XP
- dual boot setup)

I've searched through the Event Log and I can only see a couple of
suspicious items. The first is:

"The winlogon notification subscriber <GPClient> is taking long time
to handle the notification event (CreateSession)."

followed by:

"The winlogon notification subscriber <GPClient> took 122 second(s) to
handle the notification event (CreateSession)."

As far as I can tell, this is related to Group Policy (our network
uses group policy), but I can't figure out why it's taking a long time
or if there's anyway I can solve the issue.

Anyone have any ideas?
