Long delay before files appear in My Computer in Windows XP
When you click Start and then click My Computer, or when you double-click My Computer on your Windows desktop, Windows may search (a flashlight may appear) for a long time (for example, 5 minutes) before files appear. To resolve the problem, try this:
> Click Start, Run and type Services.msc
> In the Services (Local) list, right-click Windows Image Acquisition (WIA), and then click Stop
To accomplish this via command-line:
> Click Start, Run and type CMD and press Enter
> Run these commands one by one and press Enter:
NET STOP STISVC
(This stops the service)
SC CONFIG STISVC START= DISABLED
(This sets the Service startup type to disabled)
