I get bootup times of about 2 - 4 minutes, I've tried replacing the RAM, removing every USB device, running in safe mode, changing startup programs, and finally a system restore to about 2 months ago, to no avail. It happened after I installed some damnable windows updates last weekend, and as I said, system restore did not work. The first critical error is below, the rest have just been warnings.I would like to avoid reinstalling Vista if possible.
On an unrelated note, it also cannot read DVDs/CDs unless I reboot it (doesn't have the issue if it's connected to the internet).
Thanks in advance to whoever helps, I apologize if this is in the wrong section.
