startup programs (systray?) loads slow
I dont know the english word for the startup items loading in the systray ? (volume, graphicscard icon etc etc) Upon starup, everything goes very fast, until the systray is suppose to load, then the system halts for about 10 seconds before the icons appear.
I dont know the english word for the startup items loading in the "systray" ? (volume, graphicscard icon etc etc)

Why is this happening? I know someone blamed the SBLive icon (AudioHQ), but removing that doesnt change anything for me.
Can someone help me solve this?
thanks for any info

It's the SBLive drivers.
I been testing this with a friends computer.
Fresh installs up to sound card drivers.
I installed full LiveWare 3 and he installed just the Live drivers.
The boot time is the same for both.
Thus I believe it is the drivers rather than LiveWare of its related applications.

Felix is right...
The problem is SBLive drivers. I had SBLive drivers only (i hate Creative's Liveware garbageware) and i had many problems also. My computer P1000+256+SCSI160 need almost 90 seconds to boot up. It also had major power management problem as it wasn't possible to wake up after standby mode etc.
I reinstalled Windows 2000 but i kept only the included "BASE" WDM drivers and not even a bit from liveware. Everything works fine now an most other minor problems disappeared.
PS: I had similar problems using earlier Liveware 2.0
