    Try clicking on start, on run, keying in
    Code:
    sfc /scannow
    and OK.

    If the system file checker doesn't fix the problem, check your event logs for the error/warning associated with the problem and post the name of the application or file that is hanging and causing the error message and post that here.

    Try identifying the culprit by using msconfig (Start > Run and type msconfig press ok) and un-checking some startup items (on the startup tab of msconfig) until you'll get rid of that message.
