Author Domain Signing Practices? Requires internet access by the looks of my quick search, so your race is between your Ethernet/wifi and the boot-up process. The only ways to fix it are to make the computer connect to the Internet faster, which is impossible for many.

I never got to hear the “tada!” because we had a budget Sears 3.1 machine with a 386 at the time; the only sounds I heard were the beautiful pulse-width modulated screeching from the PC speaker.
