    I had problem with my laptop yesterday. I couldnt log into Windows. And I had to use F9 to restore everything back to factory. But only I did a single partition which is my C drive. Then my computer was fine. But right now, boot time takes very long. Especially at "Welcome". It takes about 15 or 20 seconds. Then nothing is displayed on the desktop. Only my background and taskbar. After about 10 seconds, all icons on desktop show up. Anyone has a clue why?
