Run msconfig from the start run box disable the autoexec.bat then reboot if that doesnt then disable the config.sys if that doesnt look in the startup disable any Known apps that you dont need NOTE: more than likley it is your registry backup that is causing the delay disable only if your advanced enough to repair your registry in case the worst happens cleaning your startup of all Junk will probably be the best bet
