Hi,
I have a problem that is starting to become quite irritating. I have a wireless network card (as well as an ethernet network) in my laptop (HP) and it seems that when I boot up Windows, it takes FOREVER to find the internet connection. It is weird though, in that I can connect to my e-mail and instant messenger right away, but I cannot view web pages with internet explorer until maybe 2-5 minutes after booting up. It seems like there is an unnecessary delay in my start-up that causes the internet to take for ever to load. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Michael

PS i use winxp home

I woudl run msconfig and try to see if you have anything running that shouldnt be there .. You're problem doesn't make a lot of sense but it has to be something that is automatically starting up that shouldn't be there.
