Windows 7 Boot takes 20+ minutes, Help!!!
About two week ago my Samsung All-in-one PC started taking about 20 minutes to boot up from a normal shutdown. The first screen that comes up is the F2/F4 screen which does not change for about 10 minutes. Then the screen goes black and the only thing on the screen is the cursor at the top left of the screen. It stays on that screen for about another 10 minutes, and eventually Windows comes up. After Windows comes up, all processes work fine. I checked the system log and the last entry after the boot started and before Windows came up was an entry for Kernel-General at 11.30.34 with event-ID of 13 and the next log entry was at 11.56.16. This boot took 26 minutes because I pressed the F4 key during the process.
