I have been trying to work out my very slow startups ever since installing.
Have a few things outstanding but reported.
The media as posted by Bill certainly helps plus I was running Avast and
noted in my performance reports + Event Logs Avast was causing slow starts. I
uninstalled Avast and installed AVG Pro plus installed Diskeeper and
defragmented rather than the inbuilt. Today for the first time I have noted
my boot time has improved although I still have to test from a *cold* boot
tomorrow.

Check your preformance logs which should indicate the areas to look at. I
was surprised to see Avast in mine which has now gone and helped me.
I didn't feel happy tweaking services but when disabling media things like
Bill has it really does help.
