Holding @ welcome screen, freezing after permission requests..

I only use my PC for gaming, but lately it's been reeallly freakin' out.

Ever since I turned it off once (I'd turned it off before...) a few weeks ago, it stays at the welcome screen for a good 20-30 minutes.
Booting in safe mode seems to solve that, but I shouldn't have to do that.
Also, every action that requires the user's permission to proceed, it either freezes, the screen stays darker, or I get that 'waiting'loading vista-swirly cursor and nothing happens.

A lot of programs have done the whole ''stopped responding'' since I turned it off that time too, which never use to happen.

This is annoying, I would like some pointers..please and thank you?

Anti Virus, try with with Anti Virus off. If that does not help, well start the boot logging.
