Not without more information.

You say work PC...got a tech department?

You mention booting, then mention loading web pages--these are two different things and the cause may or may not be related.

How long has this been going on?

Is it consistant?

Check event viewer

start > run, type
eventvwr.msc
<enter>

Look under systems and applications for items with red Xs that happened at the SAME time as your problem...list them here.

Thanks Gerry,

Yes I have a tech dept. but the dude can't seem to figure anything out....when i mentioned the pages loading and then the boot issues I meant that whenever i reboot the machine because it kicks me off the server it takes forever for the thing to reboot....it's an optiplex gx270 by dell....when i surf the net, pages lock up the machine before they open....just very frustrating....been happening for about 3 months!! and tech support could care less....and yes it happens all the time....i will do what you asked and let you know.....may not be able to finish til tomorrow.......
