Startup drivers/services/programs not always loaded
I'm using win7 pro. Three screens for video editing and a professional audiocard for 16 channel optical audio input/output. It's a standalone machine without internet. Everything has the latest updates and drivers installed. There should be 12 sytemtray icons visible after startup. Each time windows starts I have a different amount of systemtray icons with a different order. I just continue restart (do nothing just goto menu start and choose retart) until all icons are visible. Sometimes it takes about 15 restarts. It's not sure that the programs that have no icon vivible are also not loaded, sometimes they are sometimes not. While restarting I somtimes get the message "error reading TrayIcon1" or "MMDriver not working" or both. It also happens that all over sudden without any reason my screen order is changed after a restart. All the desktop icons are moved to an other screen.
Reinstalling windows, hard- and software (tried twice) didn't help. I also tried an other harddrive without result. I think there's a timing problem on loading drivers and programs during startup.
The startup folder is empty, everyting is loaded by ini, init or the registry.
Is there an option to let windows load the second driver after finnishing the firrst?
The machine is working perfect when everyting is loaded, so no complaints about that.
It only take a verry long time to start, I can live with it but it's very annoying.
Suggestions are welcome.
