Sudden Startup Change
My 2400 has boot up in less than a minute always. my specs are listed below. Yesturday, it booted up wierd. Software wierd. Only antivirus on startup all others i load manually for a speed startup. It usually plays the xp theme, loads the desktop, boots my scanner and at the same time loads the antivirus. Now, it plays the xp theme, boots the scanner and at the same time loads the antivirus, then the desktop. Why? No, change in software or in startup or anything. No viruses or anything. I don't it has become slower, but im just wondering why did my pc startup process change in the order it loads?

Could it be something to do with scheduled (monthly) antiviral scans or with scheduled searches for software updates, etc?
If it ain't broke, don't break it! :)

I wouldn't worry unless you start seeing problems or find malware on the system.
