Boot Problem

When rebooting my PC, a black screen comes on with a cursor blinking for about 10-30 seconds, and then it proceeds to show the Windows XP splash logo, is there anyway to prevent or stop this black screen with the cursor, as it slows down the boot time.

If anyone knows a solution to this problem, please tell me.

Thanks!

hrmm sounds like it is struggling through the POST. Have you altered any BIOS settings or changed any hardware over?
