Help!
Pc will not fully boot.
Old desktop running Windows XP.
Boots to normal desktop, with task bar at bottom. On task bar is start button on left and clock on right.
Rest of start up icons (next to clock) not loading.
Hovering cursor over task bar it turns into an egg timer.
None of desktop icons work. Start button does not work.
Tried reset button.
Tried switching off power.
Worked ok yesterday.
As I'm typing this on a laptop, the desktop is gradually coming to life, but start up has taken about 10 mins so far.
Just tried launching Firefox, & it has taken 2 minutes to load
Any advice appreciated to solve slow issues
