    HDD read starts very late!!


    Hi there

    As the title says when booting windows from my main SSD drive, the HDD light only starts flickering about 10/15 minutes from when the windows 10 loading screen with the spinning white dots first appreas. I believe this problem first happened after a BSOD and have not been able to solve it since.

    ATTEMPTED SOLTUTIONS

    • powercfg -h off/hibernation off
    • Disabled fast startup
    • Disabled other boot drives in BIOS
    • Made the Windows drive the 1st option and priority in BIOS
    • Did a complete refresh and reinstall of windows, clearing settings


    What I do not get is that when the HDD light does turn on and the SSD read starts... The login screen pops up in a matter of seconds like the way it should and did before that BSOD! The HDD light does not flash at all or turn on in anyway before this constant 10/15 minute delay... It is now getting a real chore to turn on and off PC becasue of the loading times - any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks!

    :)

    Long Loading Time for Lock Screen

    Hello Pawan, thank you for the reply!

    I've tried all of the steps that you've given me. Unfortunately, none of them made a difference except for the clean boot step. It didn't completely solve the problem, however I did notice a
    slightly faster load time for the lock screen. However, it still takes an unusually long time to load it. Any other suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Daniel

    Windows loading time

    How long does it take you to get past windows loading time , it takes me around 10 seconds , i think it might be my mobo. http://www.microsoft.com/library/me...g/setup/support/68224windows-logo-loading.gif

    does 10 seconds sound a bit long for my spec and could it be a bad windows install or someting :S im confused as my old pc which was an amd x2 loaded up in about 4 , every few times also i load someting up ( like starting a programme or pressing the windows start menu ) pc stops responding for a split second.

    oh yea and my pc acts reallly slow under alot of load :<
