Actually, I was thinking 15 minutes for a boot up is still too long. Unfortunately, the problem carries over to running processes while the cpu is booted. I'm still having problems with delays when I start up programs. I remember I reformatted my own Dell laptop a while ago by pressing a certain button during startup (I didn't need a cd or anything). Can you give me directions to reformat the Dell cpu, I just don't remember how I did it? Thanks.

I just disabled/unchecked all the items that you told me to and for some reason, the start up took 15 minutes. Next, I just put the check mark back into the SYSTEM.INF option and it took another 15 minutes. Please let me know if I should continue adding the checkmarks one by one and restarting each time. The reason I am giving you the update is because I assume the start up issue would've been resolved if I disabled everything.

Try doing a [b]Selective Startup[/b],it may narrow it down as to what may be causing the problem.
Click on Start>Run,type [b]msconfig[/b] then press Ok.
In the System Configuration Utility dialog box, click the General tab, and then click Selective Startup.
Click to clear the Process SYSTEM.INI File check box.
Click to clear the Process WIN.INI File check box.
Click to clear the Load Startup Items check box.
Click the Services tab.
Click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box.
Click Disable All, and then click OK.
When you are prompted, click Restart to restart the computer.
Starting with the first available check box: 'Process SYSTEM.INI File'.
Select each check box [b]one at a time[/b], and restart the computer as prompted until the problem is reproduced.
Doing this you should be able to find out whats causing your issue.

Once the problem reappears, click the tab that corresponds to the selected file.
For example,if the problem reappears after selecting the Win.ini file,click the WIN.INI tab in System Configuration Utility.

Computer is definitely running better than before but I still think it might be a little too slow than it should be. When the computer loads up when i turn it on or restart still takes really long. Here are the reports, starting with the Malware scan first.

While I was running the combofix scan, I got alerts about registry changes from Teatimer from Spybot. I allowed all the changes but if you think I should disable Teatimer and rerun the scan, please let me know. If not, here are the ComboFix and HijackThis results.

[b][color="RED"][U]Note[/U][/color][/b]
In case your Antivirus or any other realtime scanner is displaying an alert after you downloaded Combofix or while you use Combofix,please disable your scanner and redownload Combofix again.
Some scanners may see some combofix related components as suspicious and block or delete them while there's nothing wrong with them.

Also post a new Hijackthis log please.

Computer Unbelievably Slow

numba1v — Mon, 19 May 2008 14:24:07 GMT

I'm trying to fix a friends laptop. The problem is that it takes over 10 minutes for the computer to load once turning it on. Once startup has fully loaded, it takes another 30 seconds-1 minute for each program to load. I tried all of those scans I'm supposed to before posting and none of them finished. Spybot kept on saying user aborted scan within a minute of the start, Ad-aware would stop in the middle of the scan and if I pressed stop (I left it on for 8 hours and still had the same problem), it would just freeze, and sting got stuck on a file (it was stuck on scanning one particular file for 5 hours so I just closed out through task manager). Here is the HijackThis log.
