hey guys my aunt bought a compaq 6735s laptop from a computer shop which had been preinstalled with vista service pack 1 and the usual hp bloatware she gave it to me so i could install the current updates when i turned it on for the first time it took like nearly 5mins to boot. i have stopped some start up programs from running and installed all updates but it still takes nearly 3.5 mins does this seem excessivly long to anyone as the laptop i just bought with the same updates takes 1 min flat to boot ive posted the version of compaq 6735s below any help would be apprieciated as im tempted to get it returned so they can reinstall vista properly cheers all
