Hi all

All of a sudden my mini is taking ages to boot up. I have looked for the applications that are set for startup, and disabled them from doing so.
Once i get to the desktop after the login screen, there seems to be alot of disk activity for some reason, but i cant seem to figure it out.
Done all the usual repair permissions and that.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks
Thank you
Thomas from the UK

Check the S.M.A.R.T status of the drive in disk utility. It could be dying.

I also think your sig violates the rules since it's animated.
