    My laptop is an Acer 5738Z with Windows 7 Home Premium and NIS 2010.I have had it for about 5 months.For the first 4 months,I had no problems with start up times.The welcome screen appeared in ~30 secs.,wallpaper in ~40 secs.,with Norton and Internet in around 55-60 secs.My problem now is that intermittently,these times are increased.A typical boot is now that it can take ~50 secs for welcome screen,then a blank screen for ~30 secs.,then wallpaper screen appears,Norton is aleady on and then Internet icon appears.Sometimes these times are even greater.I have not installed anything new that could have caused this intermittent fault.Has anyone else experienced this and can anyone give me a solution to this intermittent problem?
