the first time I open file explorer under my windows xp machine (Window Key + E) after a fresh boot it takes a long time to load. I don't know what it's trying to do but I wish for it to just skip whatever special feature it's doing and just load !

any ideas?

Try turning off "Automatically search for network folders and printers"
It's under Tools > Options > View
