Hello all,

Having a bootup problem...
Whenever I turn on or restart my computer I have now gotten a screen showing this... CLIENT MAC ADDR 001109 66 ........ after the usual boot up screen.

It used to take about 10-15 seconds from turn on to Windows XP Main screen, with this popping up, it is now taking about 2 minutes. What is this? How can it be resolved?

Below is my specs...

MSI PT880 NEO LSR Mainboard
P4 2.4g Processor
GF 6800GT AGP 256mb Video card
2g Corsair memory
WD 160g 7600RPM SATA HD

Thanks in advance.

I think this has something to do with your network card or the onboard, go into bios and make sure you disable boot from network device or something like that. Don't forget to save when you exit.

Are you using onboard Ethernet or a card?

If the above don't work try disabling the network card temporarily to see if that helps
