Slow Loading Personal Settings

[Guest]

H
Recently when I log onto my computer it has been taking a long time to get past the blue screen which says loading personal settings. It sits there for a good minute at least. It used to load up within a couple seconds until all the sudden one day it gave me this problem. It didn't gradually get slower, it immediately started doing this after I restarted my computer one day. I have gone through msconfig. and I have tried bootvis neither worked. Can anyone please help

Hi John,
I had this very same problem just last week. I'll tell you how I got rid of it. I keep everything of value on a partitioned hard-drive then I completely re-install windows format a quick NTFS, after I export my bookmarks to the same hard drive. This might not be the fastest way of doing thing but it seems to clean out all the little twitches.
