I'll load AH, and it takes FOREVER for the clipboard to come up in the title screen. In game graphics look good, and I rarely encounter a stutter. Wht could be the deal?

A lot of things can cause this. Usually it is resource issues. Not enough free RAM, slow RAM, slow CPU, too many active background processes, Vista, and so on.
Need a DXDIAG output to start with.

It is a laptop running Vista, it will be slow to load the game.
