Windows XP doesn't fully load on startup. I get blank desktop and nothing in
the task bar. I use CRTL ALT DEL and can see almost everything is listed
with no user in the user column. I then click Shutdown and LOGOFF. It takes
about 30mins for the system to save my personal settings. Once that is
complete, I can click on my user profile to log in again. On the second try
everything loads fast fine and properly.
Anytime I restart, shutdown, or startup from fresh the profile doesn't load
fully and have to do the above to get it to load.

Is there a fix for this?
 
Use the run command in task manager and type in explorer.exe click OK and
see if your desktop loads.

Same thing here.. I even tried doing a system restore to 10/13, 14, and 15
and it won't allow the system to restore!!
 
That fixed the blank desktop on first loads. It didn't fix the main issue of
the system not starting up properly on the first login. I must still log off
the currently user and then wait 30-45mins for the setting to save and then
log back on. On the second logon everything runs fine like there is nothing
wrong with the computer.
