This, then, isn't your own computer? Or one you got from someone else? (Since your referred to it as 'owners name')

It sounds like you should try booting in "Safe Mode" and see if it boots faster. If so, then there is something on that laptop that is causing the seriously long booting process.

Also, you might want to check the BIOS to see what is running/loading when the computer is starting up.

Then I would check the drivers on the device and make sure they are all updated.
