A couple days ago I downloaded the Google Desktop Search tool and since then my computer is having problems loading. Now it could be per coincidence, I'm just not sure.

When turning on my IBM pc, it'll hang for approx 10 minutes at the black IBM startup screen (ie: the screen where you have the option to select F1, F11 etc for Safe Mode etc, etc). Like I said after approx 10 mins it'll finally start up XP and finally load up completely.

I did uninstall the Google desktop tool, but it didn't help correct this problem...

Any suggestions. I welcome all!
