Info reg System Process

Hi,
In our application our processing starts as the soon as the user logs in .
Here we need to retrieve info reg the system.
But the way windows boots up the system processes take up some time to load
all info .For ex immediately after the desktop appears if we open up the
properties of 'My Computer' some of the fields would still be disabled.
Is there a way we can determine that all system processes have been
initialised without putting in a thread.sleep and holding up application
processing.
thanks in advance

Is running your app as a Windows service a possible solution?

The way the client want it has to be windows app.
Currently what I have put in the code is a while loop which check for the
local IP address and wait till the terminal gets a valid IP address and then
proceed with the configuration.
