How can I diagnose a slow login on windows 7, there is nothing that stands out in event viewer or gpresult /h. I've kind of narrowed it down to folder redirection, only the desktop and start menu is redirected at the minute.

When I login with a domain admin account it's around 8 seconds, but with a normal user account it can take anywhere from 40 seconds to 3 minutes. Permissions look fine.

There's this program called Soluto that tracks how long various processes take during startup that might help: http://www.soluto.com/

That's a neat little program but doesn't really help as it seems just to look at what programs are slowing the boot. The machines taking a long time are fresh windows installs with nothing installed, so it's definately related to GPO or profiles somehow.

It'll list the various boot up processes Windows uses tho, it told me that a bad bluetooth driver was making my laptop take 30 seconds longer to boot than it should have.
