Booting up windowsXP Professional

[Richard Durrant]

I upgraded from win98se to xp professional, and i got
all kinds of messages about how fast it would boot up ..
But it takes forever to boot , sometimes 5 to 7 min. it
starts to boot and then it starts over over then i get
the boot menue . start normal or safe mode. finally after
3 or 4 trys it starts. after i get it booted up it works
fine , no problem , i just wish i could get it to boot
without all the starting over and all the time wasted. If
anybody can help please let me know. i love how stable it
is after it boots up ,but getting it to boot is a big
problem. THANKS PLEASE HELP ..
