Long BootSmssInitTime
My old SATAII SSD gave me a BSOD so I upgraded to a SATAIII Samsung 830. I did a fresh install of Windows 7 on the new SSD but my boot times are much longer than with my old/slower SSD. With the Event Manager I have identified the main problem as BootSmssInitTime - it is taking about 40s when most SSD logs I've seen are under 10.
I have benchmarked my SSD with AS SSD (all to spec) and optimized with Samsung Magician. I have booted in safe mode and done a clean boot but the boot time is the same. I have updated my mobo BIOS, put SATA in AHCI, and I have SSD as #1 boot priority. I downloaded Soluto to monitor boot performance but it detects most of the delay as system processes that cannot be modified.
I don't know what else to do. I have researched for days but cannot find a solution. Any ideas?
