If you've got XP, run a Bootvis trace to see what's holding up your boot times.

Your thumbnails are not showing the "Boot Done" indicator.

If you look in the image below it's the red verical line with the little square on top that appears on all 4 graphs at the same time.



Maybe it's off to the right of your scale. If you son't see it, go into Bootvis --> Tools --> Options --> Advanced and set Driver Delay to 300ms and Delay Time before dumping Boot Trace to 180 secs then try again.
