Toshiba R15-S829 satellite laptop delayed booting problems

szilszon · 01-02-2007, 12:55 AM

I've been having problems with my R15 S829 tablet pc. It usually takes up to 10 minutes to boot up and very rarely does it boot normally. It starts in about 20 secs and goes until the blue windows screen where it stalls for a few minutes; it proceeds to the desktop background where it stalls again for a few minutes. The total bootup time usually ends up being 10 minutes. I've been having this problem from day 1.

Is anyone having the same problem? Can you give me some clue to what the problem might be??

The mofos from Toshiba weren't any help. We took the laptop to a Toshiba service ctr and they didnt fix the problem-called us to go pick it up just as is even though the laptop is still under warranty.
I'm at my wit's end...hopefully someone will be able to give me some tips. Please HELPPP!!!!!!!!

Thanks
