Default windows XP Pro slow-mid-boot??

Well I am in need of help on a windows XP Pro set up,
My sisters computer was working great and all of a sudden (she thinks after windows up date) It takes forever to compleatly start! It boots normaly and the windos xp start up screen is normal but it then it is blank for about 5 minutes then the back ground immage apears then about 3 minutes more the task bar apears and the mouse starts to move, After that it all runs for the most part normal (The diskeeper wont run nor will windows defragmenter)
but every thing else seems fine??? oh when diskeeper is tried it says it is running allready But I tried Ctrl-Alt-Del and it isnt shown running.

as for security I have Kaspersky internet security, Ad Aware 2007,
Spybot search and destroy , all them say the system is clear (Ad-Aware did find 3 non criticle items and removed those.and it happend after restart. msconfig is no go (i get no err message just it wont start) I click run the screen blinks slightly and that's it. also system restore goes through the motions but after re start it says it cant finish try another restore point tried 3 times with different points but same same, well tomorow is another day and i"ll keep at it think mabe I'll put in the windows disk and try to repair from there see what happens
Any Ideas ??? Even ready for taunting or A lol if it'll help
