Machine won't boot Windows properly, please help!

Please can somebody explain what's going on....

Most times that I now turn the computer on, it 'gets stuck' on the Windows XP screen, (the one just before it loads properly).

I normally have to turn off the power, then turn the machine on again. It will then <sometimes> load, but will still take a long time.

I have the AVG virus software on the computer, and have got it to scan the machine a few times, but even though it sometimes finds & destroys a virus, it has no effect on this problem.

I'm a bit worried that, one day, it won't start at all!

Have not got a great understanding of computers, so any help to alieviate this problem would be great.

NB Tons of disk space left, plus I do get it to do a defrag occasionally.
