slow startup

hi all, winxp starts up pretty fast (~30secs). . . my problem is that right after startup and i open the start menu and go to the Connect To menu (or do anything network related), it doesn't display anything and the system just freezes for about 1 min or so(but not hang - i can move the mouse).

hey, i have sim prob maybe?
 
Everithing works great. I got DSL. If i want to connect to internet no prob.
 
but imediately after boot up, i must wait about 30sec or so before trying to conect to internet. It doesn't crash or anything, just doesn't connect until 30sec or so have pased, then no probs.
 
even if i disconect, conecting again is no prob until i reboot. then same deal. If anyone know why please pass on the info, if not then its no big deal.
 
thanx anyway.
