29415 ms this time. Not much difference.
I did disable Avast thru WinPatrol but it started on its own anyway on startup. I disabled Acronis Startup Recovery Manager.

The 29.4 sec is with Avast disabled - right? That is still too much. Enable Avast and the sudebar and leave the rest disabled. WinPatrol is your choice. It protects your registry, but you will get messages at time.
Next step would be to have a look what other processes (that do not show here) are starting. That is a bit delicate. There is a program you can run at boot that lists them all including the timing. But I forgot the name. Maybe Steve remembers.
You can run schtasks in cmd. That will list all processes that are scheduled. Maybe you see something unusual. But be careful and don't disable anything before we don't know what it is. Maybe you want to post the cmd output.

There is nothing unusual in the schtasks that I can determine.
Thanks to Steve we found Soluto. This is a good program. Have a close look at their webpage. But a word of warning. It can be a pain to uninstall it. Here are the uninstallinstruction.
If you use it, post a snip of the output.
Well I think I should remind you, I'm not too worried about the start up time as the overall performance, which appears to me to be sluggish at best.
I will run Soluto if you think it will help determine something pertaining to this.
Soluto will only tell us something about startup. That is usually my first test because you can compare apples with apples with Event 100. And your times seem to be off - not a lot, but noticeable, especially with your rig.
But what exactly do you mean by 'the overall performance, which appears to me to be sluggish'. Do programs load slowly or do they execute too slow. Is it something when you are on the internet or what ??
When I put this system together I expected to see a big difference in performance from my previous machine (HP p6720f) and I just do not see it. If it is not the SSD, then something else is not performing correctly.
Yeah, but what exactly is it that does not meet your expectations.
I have 6 PCs from a 2007 duo core with 1.6GHz and 2GB of RAM to the XPS 8300 with an i7 and 8GB of RAM. All have SSDs. For most office type applications and on the internet, there is really little performance difference that I can see. My acid tests are Boot time and video encoding. With the latter you can see a BIG difference - even between the i5 and the i7 not to speak of the lesser systems.
So maybe you were expecting too much of a difference and the SSD is really OK - because the Atto numbers look fine.
