My HP Pavilion xt155 (4-5 years old) is getting slower and slooower to boot. It takes up to 20 minutes. Once it boots it runs pretty fast. I got rid of stuff on the hard drive and now have 5.4Gb free on a 30Gb disk but that didn't help. I have 15 icons showing up on the lower right bar (I use XP) so that might be a clue. 7 of the icons and non-windows add-ons. I also use PcCillin Intenet Security as firewall and virus checker. Any ideas to make it regain its pep short of resetting it to its original config and losing a lot of programs?
