Need a program to see other applications' boot time

I have a Core i7 920 + 4gb ram machine with XP sp3 installed.

Since the last couple of months, XP takes up a lot of time to boot up.

I have to wait for atleast 70 seconds to start working after the desktop and the start menu load up.
I assume it has to do something with some stupid program that I must have installed that takes all this time to boot.

So I was just wondering if there's any program that lets us know how much time the start up programs take to actually start ?

If not, does anyone have some other solution ?

I've tried removing all the unnecessary programs from msconfig->start up, disk fragmentation and registry cleaners.
 
Thanks for the replies guys, appreciate them.
I'll try them and let your know.
And thegame, I tried CCCleaner already :(

Ok guys, tried everything but nothing's helping.
I've got only these three items in my start up now :
NvCpl.dll, NvStartup
dumprerp 0 -k
ctfmon

Also, even after boot timer is done and shows me the boot time ( something around 40 secs ), I have to keep waiting for another 40 seconds before I can actually start working.
So how do I know what is hogging the resources ??? :@:@

With a core i7 and 4gb ram machine working this slow, I feel like crying ! :(:(

First two are for your NVIDIA gfx, no idea about the second but the third is really unwanted, remove it from your system.
Use ctfmon remover
 
Hi guys, thank you all very much for the replies, I really appreciate them.

I checked, no bad sectors and also tried the ctfmon remover.

Solto was just the thing I was looking for. Though it didn't really help reduce the entire boot time ( which is 2.18 mins accurately ) but it gives the entire list of apps that run after startup. So based on that data, I guess I'll be able to figure things out.

Thank you ibose :D
