Pls Help me with my Windows7 start up delay..

[greens6x]

hi.. I need a help on my windows 7.. I succesfully installed my windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, got a the latest update, and anything on it from microsoft...

Heres the Problem, It takes 13mins to start to windows log on page... after I switch it ON... it stay on the page "Starting Windows".... at that page it takes 13mins before going to log on page.. thats the only problem i encounter in my windows 7..

pls help me on this.. what am i gonna do with this... before installing windows 7 ultimate 64-bit, I first installed the 32-bit of the same OS.. same problem occurs (13mins on the page "Starting Windows" before going to "log on" page)..... then i switched on 64-bit.... still same problem occurs, i dont think the installer cause this problem, because I used it on my Friends Desktop and it RUNS SMOOTHLY and normally.... no delay... my DESKTOP SPECS is way better than his..

I attached my pc specs on this.. Plss help me on this guys.. Thanks in advance..

this is almost certainly Bios misconfiguration or bad hardware

go into your Bios and disable on board graphics not just uninstall from device manager it will reinstall upon reboot

Try rebooting in safe mode (F8) does the problem still occur?

 

[computersplus]

check your event viewer logs for errors flagged in red look at the system directory first

I tried rebooting in Safe Mode, and yes, it BOOTED so fast.. and then what? then i Booted it again in normal.. problem still occurs..

go into your Bios and disable on board graphics not just uninstall from device manager it will reinstall upon reboot

I did go to my Bios, but, I cant see where this "on board video card" located and how can I disable this..

If I understand you, it BOOTED FAST in Safe Mode? That would indicate it is a startup program or service. Go to the link in RICHC46 post above and isolate the startup program/service that is causing the problem.

Of course I agree. If you want to correct the problem, it may be a slow pain, but it will be worth the effort.

If it boot fast in safe mode you can use msconfig to narrow down what is in conflict. Are you running a RAID? are you overclocking?

I would use msconfi to not load the antivirus and firewalls first

How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

I did this ISOLATION method,
1st, I unchecked 1st half of the "services" then restart... Problem still occur ( Freezes at "Windows Starting" page, after the windows7 animation logo then it takes 13minutes to proceed to the "log on" page),

then, 2nd, I checked the 1st Half and unchecked the 2nd half of "service" tab.. and still, same result... nothing change on the boot time.. Problem still occur ( Freezes at "Windows Starting" page, after the windows7 animation logo then it takes 13minutes to proceed to the "log on" page)...

i also thought this method can resolve this... but it didnt.. btw.. Thnx for the effort guys.. I hope this can be resolved..

Did you Install anything else after Win7? or is it a clean install +updates? Check what you installed then see if thats the problem.

Were you looking at the services tab in msconfig? That can be helpful at times, but if you shut off the wrong services, you can cause more issues.

I would:

go back to the services tab and choose enable all.

go to the startup tab and select disable all.

restart.

does it boot quickly??


If it does, you know that it is something on that startup tab that slowed you down.

Then do the same type of "isolation method" that you did on the services tab to narrow down what the problem might be.

If disabling everything in the startup tab does not help, post back.

try to load defaults for Bios settings and see what happens disconnect any unneeded external devices also if you have another mouse and keyboard you can plug in for a test I would do that also I have seen alot of keyboards over the years cause very strange issues like this
