Hi...I had just reinstalled Windows XP Professional into my computer cause my nephew erased some of my files..I also reinstalled Nortan Anti virus 2003 ..After reinstalling I had noticed a lot of things that werent the same..I had notice that my computer now Boots up VERY VERY slow, before under 1 minute now 4 minutes...also, I'm using cable but now my internet takes forever to load and search through so it seems like I have a 56k modem..I was wondering what could be the problem for this?
