Windows 10: Longer boot time during Windows Logo after clean reinstall

https://preview.redd.it/vrlu29xpto4...bp&s=ea94c697fbf58fcb195aa3db877c46f038936b27

Hi, recently I did a clean reinstall of Windows 10 Home and I noticed the following difference when booting my computer:

Before (fresh built, first Windows install) :

Power button press to bios splash screen: 3-4s

Bios splash screen to windows logo: 2-3s

Windows logo to login screen: 0s? (I don't even recall seeing the windows logo in the first two weeks, and yes I have a habit of staring at my monitor when it boots)

Login screen to desktop: 2-3s (I didn't set up a password, it loads for a few seconds on the lock screen with my name on it and automatically goes into desktop)

After:

Power button press to bios splash screen: 3-4s (same)

Bios splash screen to windows logo: 2-3s (same)

Windows logo to login screen: 5-6s (could almost say this 'new phase' is now present)

Login screen to desktop: 0-1s (shorter)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As shown above, the total boot time is noticeably longer.

I've been spending the past couple days trying to find the cause of this change. Right now my PC is empty, with nothing installed other than the chipset and motherboard drivers. In desperation I've also tried a Bios Update and driver updates, still no luck.

Any comments or suggestions is greatly appreciated, I'm willing to test anything at this point.

Motherboard: MSI B450M Pro-M2 Max

SSD: Kingston A2000 M.2 NVMe 500GB

Clean Install Workaround for Vista

You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:

• Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
• When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
• Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
• When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
• This time enter your product key
• When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
• Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it

Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.
