Windows XP Service Pack 2: Right click and Shutdown issues

G

Guest

Hello, I am using Windows XP Home OEM edition Service pack 2 with all the
latest updates installed. Whenever I right click on a free space in the
desktop, the menu takes sometime to appear (4 to five seconds) The hourglass
appears and the menu appears. Do others face the same problem? Installed LAN
recently, to access the internet and since then, my shutdown time has become
considerably low. It takes five minutes for the shutdown process to get over.
Please help me out people. Regards,
Pradip Udayakanth C.G

You're welcome Pradip. Which extension caused this?

BTW, where in India are you from?

Have you tried an advanced clean-boot and still does not help?
