Slow PC start up

My OH PC with he uses not for business per-say but he does use for work and not gaming, is very slow to start up.

At first it became sluggish on start up and shut down. I used a scan/malware and CC cleaner and found nothing although the system was re-optimised.

I reinstalled windows 7 Home Premium as a clean install as it was an upgrade from Vista. The shut down is now fine and the PC works well and is quite fast again but it still takes an age to start up - 7mins in fact!


It hangs around the opening screen which has loads of white writing on a black page [sorry not sure what the tech expression is] tho' I think it's checking the system, I wonder if some thing is on it's way out or is getting stuck for some reason - any help appreciated.

Pam
