when i first turn on my pc i have a strange screen that
shows up before my regular desktop appears, this screen
just sits there for about 5 minutes before going away.
there is no way i can click on anything to get rid of it.
it has a small image in the center about an inch square.
i had this image on my pc about 4 mounths ago, but it has
long ago been removed, how can this screen i have been
invaded with be removed? i have windows xp home version.
 
Gloria, I suspect that is simply a bitmap of a desktop wallpaper...the real
issue isn't the bitmap, but why the explorer shell is taking so long to
load.

First thing you might want to do is check out event view and seeif anything
is fouling during start up...

Right click MY COMPUTER, choose MANAGE, then expand Event Viewer in the left
lane, looking at APPLICATION AND SYSTEM for errors (red Xs).

Are there any system events that errored out?
