Do you have a NIC? If so 98 default drivers for some cards cause VERY slow boots.
Also, go into system in the control panel, click on performance, file system and floppy disk, and disbale search for new floppy drives each time your computer starts.
Hope this helps

Why do convenience stores that are open 24/7 have locks on the doors?
and of course disable all the startup stuff in the startup menu (like office and realplayer and more) and make sure you defrag
and make sure there are no IRQ conflicts among devices.
