The problem is probably Windows. You can confirm this by booting into a Linux Live CD. If that boot goes pretty quick, then you know the problem is indeed with Windows and not faulty hardware (as your specs are theoretically good enough to boot XP in less than one minute). (And if you do end up trying out Linux, who knows, maybe you'll really like it!) Now, try downloading and installing EasyCleaner, run it, and remove startup items. That should help a little. If not, what you would need to do is make backup copies of all your important files and completely re-install XP. With Windows, it's a fact of live that you have to reinstall the operating system every once in a while. Just make the backups, pop in your restore or install CD, and commence with replacing your faulty/corrupt installation of XP with a nice, clean, new one.
