Software, Anti-Virus

You must remember, that a Windows become more and more unstable with each passing day (as nearly all entries of programs installed and removed are kept in Registeries and other files which makes system more and more vulnerable). So consider it as a rule of thumb to format and re-partition your system once a year to keep it running fast!

Im not sure 3 minutes is overly long to be honest. Yes defragment the hard drive, this can be done using a utility in windows. Yes run wondows defender or similar to see if spyware is slowing it down.

You might also run a windows utility via the "run" box ..
typw "msconfig" and see what programs are loading when you turn the machine on. Sometimes programs run "other" programs that stay running eating up memory and cpu time.

Defrag the hard drive. Assuming XP SP2 ensure that you have at least 512MB RAM.
