When you startup, the laptop is looking for a dvd/cd/ ethernet , or, usb drive befrore it looks for the hard drive
Answer- Press f2 at startup to enter the bios, and CHANGE THE BOOT ORDER TO HARD DRIVE FIRST IN BOOT OPTIONS IN THE BIOS (IF YOU CHANGE IT IN -SAY F10/F12, THEN it will not stay that way on next bootup -often it only does it the one time you select it there.
Next
Too many programs starting at startup , or, too many icons/documents on the desktop (we all do that and need to tidy up) this makes windows look for all these items and "write" them to screen . To reduce programs that do not need to run at startup, I often look at Black Vipers websute, but this might be too advanced for a novice- depending on your personal level in computing. A temporary way to find the offenders is to disable them, by pressing f8 at start up and then starting in safe mode with networking. If it starts a lot quicker then it is likely a/ or. a few programs starting up at startup that is causing the slow down.
Ram
If the amount of extra memory (ram) is say 1gb, and you have a heavy graphics draw on that , then that can slow you down- have a plain background on your desktop will help- the grahics chip will use some of the ram, so worth looking at- fit more ram, will often help.
Virus, or, sometimes a heavy antyvirus can slow it down- run a virus check.
There are more possibilities, but I am due out , now. so I hope that gives you a start.
