Delay in starting sound service

Postby patkim » Tue Dec 14, 2004 5:54 pm

Recently I re-installed Win XP Prof. And I have been observing that now the sound service takes at least 2 – 3 minutes to start. I.e. the windows logon sound and the tray speaker icon takes about 2 – 3 minutes to display and during this time PC appears to be hung. Just not getting what could have been causing this.
Thanks..
