I have a 386-16 w/4meg running DOS 4.0 with win3.0. My problem is that it takes 1 minutes and 4 seconds to boot windows after I first see the windows logo page. I got rid of all TSRs. No help. Using no wallpaper. No help. Added swap line in config.sys. No help. Adding wallpaper does NOT increase the time. What gives? I've seen friend's systems come up in just a few seconds. The only difference that I could see is they have a 20 MHz processor instead of a 16. Any help will be appreciated. I looked in the FAQ but couldn't find an answer.
