    Hi Emma,
    Not 100% sure what your describing, but it sounds as though something is happening at start up which is delaying the desktop initialisation, this can be all sorts of things, can you also describe the little square that is in the middle that you click on? is it AVG updating?
    are you only running one anti-virus?

    If it was me I would firstly clear the start up ‘folder’ this contains software programs that run at start up, they tend to install by themselves and can be restarted manually from ‘programs’ so this will not uninstall or damage them.
    Also go to ‘Scheduled Tasks in the Control Panel and see what is in there, these can be safely disabled.
    Also, take a not of what you do so that you can reinstate anything if it goes wrong.

    Try,

    Start/all programs/start up – delete start up contents and re-boot.

    Ok i deleted all but the company that im online with from my start up menu, but still same prob.

    When you switch you pc off, it dont fully switch off until you click “turn of computer” bottom left hand of screen? Then you get 3 options in the middle of that screen, restart, off and something else.

    Before you get those 3 choices, there is a small box that allows you to switch your pc on to desktop? It will have the name you give your pc next to it on the right, and on the left it will say “to begin, click your user name”.

    Right, when i switch my pc on, it stops at this screen, and when i leave my pc for about 5 mins, it goes back there. How do i stop it doing this?

    Thanks for your help.

    I don’t fully understand , but I think your saying is you’ve more than one account on your computer , so maybe this problem is occurring because someone else’s account is still signed in , on the internet ……( make sense ) , I remember someone i knew when her daughter had been online in her name & had forgotten to sign out of msn & I switched users she was showing on line even though she wasn’t , hope your following this as im losing myself here :lol:
