what would cause a prolonged blue screen during start up?

I have an iMac desktop. Recently I've had trouble with a prolonged blue screen during start up (approx. 10 mins) before it finally takes me to the login screen. Any ideas why this is happening?

Hi Jeff,

Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem Startup for clues.
