Everything else works fine and all apps work OK (including astro stuff).

Actually Nev, this is normal especially if you have just installed some type of hardware or Software. You will find a Vanilla install of XP wont do this, as basically its just the O/S that loads, but the more you put on there, the more liable this is to happen. My Aspire One sits on the welcome screen for about the same amount of time, but is rock solid.

i wouldnt worry about it
