I have an E Machine running Vista Home Basic 32 bit. I press the power button and 45 seconds later the monitor lights up. About 2 minutes later the internet connection is made. The total time from turn on until I can use the computer on the internet is nearly 3 minutes. It did not use to be that slow. I have deleted everything I dare but it has not had any effect. Any suggestions about helping it run faster. After I get on the internet everything seems normal. Thanks Bob
