I found that the BIGGEST factor in the time windows takes to load is the
speed of your hard drive.  I used to have a Seagate-225 (65ms) on a 25MHz
386 and windows took 1-1.25min to load.  Then I upgraded to a 20ms hard drive
and now it only takes about 20sec.  Since you didn't specify what kind of
hard drive you have I can't say for sure that that is your problem.  But
there's a pretty good chance that it is.
