ATI Radeon HD 3200 GPU @ 700MB,
Dynet 3GB DDR2 800 MHz,
SATA 2x500 GB,
Samsung 32" LCD
Windows XP.

PROBLEM: WINDOWS XP OS BOOT TIME 7 MIN & 12 SEC. WITHOUT INSTALL ANY DRIVER AND SOFTWARES JUST XP SETUP.

OPTION TRIED:
1. ALL PHYSICAL CONNECTIVITY CHECKED.
2. BIOS SET TO DEFAULT.
3. DOWNLOAD XP ISO FROM DIFF. 3 LOCATIONS. AND RUN SETUP.
4. BIOS BOOT LIST CHECKED.
5. SCAN WITH ANTIVIRUS & SPYWARE (AVG + ZONE ALARM).
FEW DAYS BACK XP BOOTING UP NORMAL BUT I WANT TO REINSTALL OS DUE TO SOME REASON AND THEN THE PROBLEM WAKE UP ?????

PLEASE HELP ME....WHAT SHOULD I DO.....
:(:(:(
 
Apart from software conflict----Change HDD cables and check HDD integrity with testing tools, try with single HDD, remove addon peripherals, clean dirt. Further on RAM, a weak PSU could be candidate.
 
go with virus32win , check your HDD, check if the file-system of the HDD are clean, Also run a bad sector scan using HD tune

Read about "Reallocated Sector Count"

When the hard drive finds a read/write/verification error, it marks that sector as "reallocated" and transfers data to a special reserved area (spare area). This process is also known as remapping, and reallocated sectors are called "remaps". The raw value normally represents a count of the bad sectors that have been found and remapped. Thus, the higher the attribute value, the more sectors the drive has had to reallocate. This allows a drive with bad sectors to continue operation, however, a drive which has had any reallocations at all is significantly more likely fail in the near future. While primarily used as a metric of the life-expectancy of the drive, this number also affects performance. As the count of reallocated sectors increases, the read/write speed tends to become worse because the drive head is forced to seek to the reserved area whenever a remap is accessed. A workaround which will preserve drive speed at the expense of capacity is to create a disk partition over the region which contains remaps and instruct the operating system to not use that partition.
