I switched off the notebook tuning service as suggested but this has made no difference whatsoever.

I also tried stockyvilllages suggestion and yes boot was set to 1 processor - I changed it to 2 and this has improved boot up time to 2 mins 20 secs.

This is IMHO still far too long and about twice that of my sons Acer Vista laptop.

Any further suggestions?
Can you mail me a screen shot of your start up list in system configuration.
