    Windows 7 takes 60 seconds to boot (Using SSD)


    Hello,
    I have an Samsung SSD EVO 850 (250GB), 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a I3-2120 (Sandy Bridge) CPU
    Running windows 7 with service pack 1 ( 6.1.7601 according to ver command)
    Boot takes 60 seconds to load.
    Been trying Sfc /scannow

    Here is some useful stuff from my computer:
    ntblog.txt
    System information log
    System (Event viewer)

    I have also found this guide guide
    At first i have choosen the first one - Only discovering problems but without repairing them.
    Rebooted my pc then went to the event viewer. There i have seen that ArcSec Driver has failed to start.
    I have switched to the second option that includes repair, rebooted my pc and nothing. nothing has changed.
    I have launched Autoruns Sysinternals and found some problems - deleted some, disabled some but it changed nothing. Still boot takes 60 seconds (from the moment "starting windows" is on the screen till you can type a password)

    Photo number one
    Photo number 2

    Thank you :)

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    Did you clean install to the new ssd it is advised over cloning,
    Did you align the ssd ?
    Free mini tool can align it pretty easily

    Also did you use samsung magician to update the ssd's firmware ?

    For info only.
    Note: Do not try to do clone on SSD using this Mini Tools partition wizard.
    I tried on 3 new SSD, include align, etc; but the clone stop halfway.
    Laptop HDD light is off, which should not be, as i did watch when it started the clone process.
    Using the Check Disk (Mini Tools partition wizard), there are no errors on all the 3 SSD recently bought.

    Edit: btw, the boot takes about 20 sec.

    Hey :)
    No, i didn't.
    I was using an Intel 330 120GB SSD before i had the samsung. I have cloned the system from the regular hdd using Intel cloning software, and then i have cloned the system from the intel ssd with samsung cloning software. Hope you have got it ;-)
    I don't remember if i have aligned the ssd. and yes i have the latest frimware.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the info.

    Actually the first SSD was cloned successfully.

    Will take note on your suggestion.
    Align is not necessary as clone would handle it.

    Thanks
