Can I speed up boot time on hp compaq nc6320?

[kingnothing]

I have a hp compaq nc6320, Intel core 2 1.66GHz with 4GB RAM running windows 7 ultimate 64bit. I've just done a fresh install and installed all updates and now it seems to take ages (around 5 minutes) to boot in to windows to a point where I can open a browser or program etc. Is this just because of all the updates, as before I applied them it was a much quicker process booting into windows? Anything I can do to speed things up a little?

Thanks,

Tom.

Several suggestions here that you can try, Tom. Not all will apply but you might see some improvement with the general maintenance chores like 7, 11, 12, 19, and 34 (to name just a few.)
