Any help on this situation would be appreciated: I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 laptop. Running Win 2000 Pro with very good stability. Speed is fine for my needs. HOWEVER the boot up time is crazy. From a cold boot it is sometimes 10 minutes.

My sons new XP Dell boots up in under a minute. Would it be worth upgrading to XP PRO at this point on a 4+ year old laptop or am I better off getting something newer with XP.

Is there anything amiss with a 10 minute boot up? Or is that normal.

TIA

Signatures are so yesterday!
