Hi Colin-2, I also use LO Portable, however I usually run it off my local hard drive (long story, don't ask). I usually find that it takes a while to start up, but not as long as 2 minutes. I think 20 to 30 seconds is more likely (from cold start). I just tested if from my flash disk (using the portableApps launcher), took about 30 seconds, although I am using Windows 7. Do you have all the Windows XP service packs installed (I believe the latest is SP3)? You can check this by right-clicking on "My Computer" > Properties. The link for the LibreOfficePortable forum is: http://portableapps.com/forums/support/libreoffice_portable I know there have been some discussions about start-up time of LO portable, if not in the LO portable forum then elsewhere on the PortableApps site. Unfortunately, I can't really remember the suggestions (except disabling tooltips or something), so you'll probably have to check it out yourself.
