slow boot after reinstall

Hi, Ive just reinstalled windows XP pro - now when I boot / reboot the screen displays the Fujitsu Siemans logo (I assume 'this to be' stored in the BIOS) for about 2-3 mins before it gets to the boot screen - not sure whats going on, can anybody help.
I'm running a P4 2.0 256 Ram, gforce 4 mx 420 (80 gig hd)

Is this a home built or a name brand computer?

What did you use to reinstall? A WinXP Pro installation CD or a recovery CD?

Did you install all the necessary drivers? Motherboard chipset, video, etc...
