Extremely slow startup after Windows 7 clean install
I recently did a clean install from Windows Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Each time I try to restart or turn on my computer, it takes about 15 minutes to boot. It gets stuck at the starting Windows screen for the majority of that time and it looks like the hard drive does not show any action. After about 15 minutes it eventually boots up.I am also having issues with my sound not working so I am wondering if its an issue with those drivers or if it is something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
