Win7 32-bit slow (what am I doing wrong?)?

Something wrong there it could be anything is it the same in safe mode did you install it to ssd or copy it as 7 needs special settings for ssd. It's back to basic like running a full disk check checking for disk firmware update running sfc /scannow check what's running at start. With SSD you would expect startup to be 15-25 seconds

Hi Scott,

lets get IE11 outa the way for starters, (take it you use another browser)

Control panel >> Programs/Features >> Features (top left)
A small panel will open UNcheck IE11 >> Reboot.

any improvement??

AS it takes so long to get up and running, might as well slip in a couple of other repair jobs
Run SURT, KB947821 - considering you problems it could take a couple of hours

and set up a disk check. from a admin command prompt chkdsk /r
chkdsk, will run after reboot

Please don't reply if you don't have 32-bit!-
I have a fast I5-6600 processor, Gigabyte MB, 100mbps cable internet, latest Samsung SSD, 4 gig of DDR4 memory (wish they made 2gb DDR4, so I could use dual channels!).

what Gigabyte board do you have, scottls59901?
use Speccy to gather more accurate hardware specs as "latest Samsung SSD" seems vague

Have you tried a clean boot to try to pinpoint what's causing the problem?

For starters, run msconfig.exe. In the Startup tab, check the box to disable all. Reboot. Does that help?

If not, run msconfig.exe again and, in the Services tab, check the box to "hide all microsoft" and then the box to disable all. Reboot.

Have you run the samsung util to check for firmware update and to get settings right. What does th drive benchmark at

Hi Scott,

Yep it is,

Did the IE11 removal help??
