Problems booting up perfecty.
 
For some odd reasons, my computer has problems lately booting up.. The computer itself starts just fine though, but check the image below:

Every time the computer is hanging up for a randomly different time. Some times it locks up for 5min, the other time for 1min. After that, it runs as normal. But most of the time it locks up for over 5min rather then a few seconds which is rather annoying. Anyone willing to help me out?

Hmm ... well, if that's before the OS starts loading, I'd say you have some kind of hardware problem.
Now you'll probably have to remove as many boards as possible and see if that still happens.
If not, put one of them back inside, test again ...

I had a similar problem once, found out it was caused by a faulty network interface card.

Mmm, any kind of hardware testing software around? As I am not wanting to mess with this computer at the moment. I am fully capable of taking out all hardware, and set the whole computer in one again.. but I don't think my dad would appreciate that ;).

How long have you had it? I reckon your cmos battery could be due a change soon.

It's only a 1/2 years old. If the battery needed a change, the first thing I would notice is a time / date difference in windows. Which is not the case.
