I've read many about many similar problems and solutions.
All deal with penny haircuts, El NiΓ±o, that frat party that everyone missed, Elmo's nosehairs, and a bottle of bourbon.
But, no matter what the solution was, the answer was always the same.
No. It does not take that long
I use Advanced Server all the time, and it takes maybe 15 seconds from opening bluescreen to ctrl alt del.

OP
but if im going to remove, it took me seconds only. So do u think something wrong with my installation or my machine...inferno2000.
First, what are the specs on your machine?
Most importantly, CPU, mobo, RAM, etc.?
You said directory services...I'll have to check on that--I personally don't use it...I didn't notice that in the first statement.
By this do you mean active directory?
If so, I beleive reading a long time ago, that that DOES in fact increase load times....but I don't remember it being that long.
If that is the case, and you are using directory services, then I would suspect that the long boot time is normal...but do NOT quote me on that.

I'm curious to know how many machines are on your network, and their status on it (child domain controllers, or just workstations). I've found that to decrease the amount to time you have to wait, I had to turn off all the child domain controllers.
