Jack,
Thanks for your response. I worked on the problem all morning without
solving it. I removed my wireless network card from my pc and it still took
a long time before the computer responded to opening explorer (internet and
windows explorer). So the wireless network isn't the problem. I then
thought it might be the windows firewall because after the computer starting
responding, a balloon came up really briefly that said the windows firewall
wasn't turned on even though it was. Then that balloon would dissapear and
everything would function normally. But even when I disabled the firewall it
would still take a while before programs functioned normally. So then I
uninstalled the uPnP settings through add/remove programs. That didn't help
either. At this point I gave up and figures I would just be patient throught
the two minute lag when I boot up the computer. Unless you have a solution.
