"Semi" slow window startup?

I have a x201 laptop with SSD running x64 win7

The window startup is actually quite fast..from power on button to window is usually under 22 seconds
Once in window, I can immediately open files explorer and some program like google chrome and start going to all different websites

But the problem is, many other programs seem to take another 90+ seconds before it can start up...
For examples...all the office program (excel, words, outlook), the search function, and even my logitech setpoint software wont' startup until almost 2 minutes

And it is not that these programs takes 1-2 minutes to start...
Example:
1) if i start MS Outlook immediately after window boot up, it will takes 2 minutes for it to start.
2) If i start MS Outlook 1 minutes after window boot up, it will takes 1 minute for it to start
3) If i wait and start MS Outlook 2 minutes after window boot up, it takes 1 second for it to start...
*On the other hand, some programs like chrome will start immediately as soon as window is up

I've tried disabling almost all the startup program in msconfig, but I am still getting the same result.
Is there anyway I can find out what is taking so long to load during start up? and why it only affect certain programs but not others?
