I need help!!!

I recently reinstalled Windows XP Media Center Edition and now it takes up
to 2 minutes to shut down. Please don't give me any of the registry fixes
like to make Windows kill unresponsive tasks faster or kill processes faster,
I have already done that.

FYI, for an anti-virus I have Avira Antivirus and for a firewall I have
ZoneAlarm Free. Could they be causing the problems? Could it be my hard
drive going out? I don't know. Please, any suggestions?
