you can open task manager, go to the startup tab, and disable any programs that automatically start up with windows boot.
you can disable one at a time and test run (restart/use the PC) until you find what is misbehaving.
it wasnt anything on the start up though, it would just say it 5 minutes into the pc being on
That doesn't mean it isn't a start menu item. It could be a service getting started by a startup service, or a low priority service that only gets to start after windows has finished loading everything else. The fact of the matter is something is running that wants to start a process/program which it cannot do for some reason. Disabling the items in start help track down the root of the problem.
You can try going into apps and features in control panel, select the "order by date installed" and look to see if anything is new without your knowledge.
Another way to test driver and app problems is to start in safe mode and see if the problem occurs. If so, then you have deeper issues with the system OS files or possibly a bad memory stick or failing hard drive.
