Windows 2000 Slow Boot Up

I just upgraded to Windows 2000. It boots up really slow. I have it at work and it boots up normal. Why does it take so long to load at my house when I have a faster PC than the one at work?
Home PC-
Asus P3B-F
P3 800 > 960 cbo
64mb GeForce 2
256mb ram PC100
SB-Live
WD Expert 7200 drive on Promise ATA-66 controller
Jaz 2Gb on Adaptec SCSI Controller
TDK Velo CD 12x10x32x
DVD Rom

Work PC-
Gateway P3 667
128mb PC133
Turtle Beach Sound Card
Intergrated Video
7200 rpm Western Digital drive
Jaz 2Gb on a Iomega SCSI card
 
The promise controllers boot slow. I have one built in on a MSI board and it is damn slow.
 
Yes, that promise controller card on some motherboards causes extremely slow bootups. i removed mine and used the onboard although not as good VIA U66 contoller.
