A recent issue as come about with the new computer I have built. When I turn it on it boots up (dang fast I might add) and runs normaly. Everything works exept for Microsoft things that access the internet like IE, Windows Media Player, and MSNM. FF works fine right away and so does everything else. So on the M$ programs I end their tasks and they sit there for a second then shut off. After about 5 min after boot, the little Report Error thing comes up and then all the programs work. Its like it hits a critical time then all the prompts for error reporting show up and the programs start to work. Any idea what this is?
System Specs
Processor: AMD Athlon X2 3800
Motherboard: Gigabyte nForce 4 with SLi (Integrated LAN)
RAM: 1GB PNY
Graphics Card: nVidia GeForce 6600 GT (128MB w/ SLi)
I appreciate the help!

Can you use better grammar and describe your situation again? Seriously, I’ve read that three times and can’t pinpoint your cause and effect.
^thats becuase there is no real cause its just windows messing up. You may have something messing with your internet on boot up.
start>run>msconfig>startup>turn off anything that looks really out of place or that you can’t tell what the heck it is (dont worry things that your computer needs to run arnt on the list and/or wont let you turn them off).
//edit, just read your comptures new so that probably wont help, but is worth a quick try.
My motherboard has the nForce 4 chipset with some nVidia firewall thing. I turned it off in that config that you described. You think that might be it? That was one of the things that came on in the system tray late. It used to be on the processes list but it is gone now that I dont have it start with it anymore. Still half boots up though.
@Maxto0sity - Grammar looks fine to me and Word. You just tired? I hate that. Get all tired, words get blurry and all switched around.
Thanks for the help guys,

Basically my guess would be that your internet isnt being configured or reconised by windows till after all the system programs start (all your MS programs use them to connect though). Really dont know how to fix this, but there has to be someone thats had the problem before.
Click Start, click Run, and then type icwconn1.exe could be set up wrong.
