Very Slow Windows Load

[ameilius]

brand new vaio

takes FOREVER on the windows splash/loading screen - runs fine etc after this - literally - 4mins or so

what can i check/disable etc to limit this??

i ran ERD and checked the autoruns etc - but thats more or less once windows loads, no?

either way - theres not an excessive amount of things loading

BootVis should be able to tell you what is slowing down your boot.
