To find out exactly what your boot times are, we added a reporting function in BiaB 2014 Build 381.

Do the menu action [main menu] [help] [display log of yellow/green messages]

You will see lines like this:

- Bootup time in milliseconds =11,336 [4/1/2014 8:38:34 AM]

That means it took 11 seconds to bootup. So please search through that log, and post several entries.
Note that this is the time from when BiaB first gets control of the program to when its finished booting and drawn everything. So if there was a problem before that (such as a virus checker blocking things, then the bootup time would be listed as shorter than it really was, since the time we display is when we first get control of the program.

Once we get some data from people, we can work on finding out what is causing a boot delay from some people.

Have Fun!
