[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1653643, member: 131855"] Others aren't necessarily having that problem. The fact that the slowdowns are occurring during startup and not constantly might be a good place to start looking for potential problems. If you go into the Users & Groups preference pane and look at the settings for your account what login items are loading? Are there any there that you may not need? Don't delete them yet unless you know what pro9grams they belong to and are sure they aren't needed. Here are a couple of questions which occur to me: 1. How much free space is available on the hard drive (select the drive then press command I). the results will be in the window that appears. 2. Where in the boot process is the slowdown happening? Is it slow getting to the login screen or slow going from the login screen to the point that login is complete and you can work? [/QUOTE]
