Late startup sound/jingle on new PC
Hello and greetings to you all
I have some "problem" with my new PC and Windows 7 home premium x64, looking for some solution.
I have installed Win 7 home premium x64 about 2 month ago and my problem is - most of the times, when I turn on PC, get to welcome Windows screen and RIGHT AFTER there sould be startup sound typical to system, but for some reason (don't have a clue why) this sound almost always is delayed for me.
It looks like this, welcome screen, after this goes to desktop and icons loading from white blank files to actual icons, after about 5 seconds startup sound.
As you see sound is delayed for about 5-6 seconds, I know it is not normal, but can't figure out why.
Things I have done so far:
Scanned with Avast free and Windows Defender, no infections
Checked msconfig, i have normal startup and startup programs are:
-daemon tools lite
-x360 gamepad
-avast antivirus
-intel usb 3.0
-intel rapid store management (default set to delayed lauch, but without this installed at all I had same late startup sound)
-realtek sound driver
Also checked Win sound settings and startup sound is enabled there.
That's all, had also s#itty geforce experience with shadowplay but uninstalled this "optimization" tool.
What can cause this? Pc works fast besides this, overall boot time is about 40 sec. and it is also normal for HDD.
My PC specs should be in profile, just typed them during registration process.
