Is there any sw that can help me identify WHY that happens?

After logging in, it takes 5-10 minutes to start up the desktop, I can
just see the desktop background image...

Thanks

No.

Typically caused by items that start with Windows.

Have you noticed the Error Reports posted in Nicola's other thread. This
is not a typical home computer.
