I left it for about 5 mins came back and nothing had loaded up. I then left it for two hours came back and it had still not loaded up. Anyone know what it is? Thanks. Kurt

It does seem that mine is really slow. I'm also having the right-click very slow issue as well. I did the shellexview and disabled all non microsoft, but when it rebooted there was an issue with my mcafee missing something so I just re-enabled everything?
