Long pause on startup

[Guest Michel S.]

Hello,

 

Since yesterday, my system "pauses" upon booting.

 

After the welcome screen, the screen is blacked out with only the mouse

pointer in the middle. This remains for 1:30 to 2:00 minutes before

the desktop appears.

 

Before yesterday, there was no such pause. No program was installed in

the mid-time nor any change to hardware of Vista's configuration were

done.

 

Any idea ?

 

Thanks.
