Hi all :)

After i installed my HD6970 and formatted my computer, I have been experiencing something quite frustrating about my boot.

When I boot up my computer, it hangs for over 1 minute at this screen: http://weblogs.asp.net/blogs/jguadagno/StartingWindows_thumb_60FECFB9.png


I have been trying to find software for boot logging but it has been useless. My Windows bootlog looked like this:

My boot hanged after

The next driver after that is
Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys

So I tried to unplug my DVD-RW and my DVD/CD-RW drives to see if it would help. It did not, and now the log looks like this:

The hang is still after

has appeared. Does this mean that there is something wrong with
\SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys ??


My specs:
Windows 7 ultimate 64bit
*Gigabyte GA-790FXTA-UD5, Socket-AM3
*AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition
*Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1333MHz 4GB CL9
*XFX Radeon HD 6970 2GB
*Intel X25-M SSD 80GB 2,5",
*WD Caviar® Black 750GB, 3,5", SATA

What I have tried:
Formatted and used a different OS (W7 proffesional 64bit)
Changed memory sticks
Disconnected my secondary HDD (WD Caviar 750gb)
Disconnected my DVD-RW and DVD/CD-RW drives


Anyone who can help me on this one?

Check your bios settings very carefully in comparison to the equipment you are running. You may have an incorrect setting that is causing the delay.

Okay will check for that. Do you have an example of what such a setting may be?


EDIT: Checked the BIOS, couldn't find anything but I'm no BIOS expert... When I restart PC after closing BIOS options, the computer booted up in no-time! Tried to reboot and now it doesn't hang at all.

Will be back if the problemt reoccurs :)

Let's start with basic stuff first. Check your boot order and make sure your main drive containing Windows is number one on the list, that way your machine will boot from that drive first. Also, check that your graphics card type is set to PCI-E and not PCI.

If you are not used to playing around in the BIOS be very careful! If you are not sure what you are doing, leave it alone or your problems could get a whole lot worse! Also just change one thing at a time, that way if something goes wrong , you know where things went wrong.

Thanks a lot. Will try this, but my problem seems to have gone away for now.
As I said earlier, I tried to disconnect my DVD-RW and DVD/CD-RW drives. The hang problem disappeared right after I connected the drives again. Maybe something had gone wrong with the communication between my motherboard and my disc drives? It seemed like the boot hanged with drivers/cdrom.sys, so maybe it's fixed :)

As I said, will be back if the problem reappears.

+1 - the boot trace *will* show exactly what is happening.

Related: trying to run boot trace on my system caused it to just blue screen over and over until I did a system restore with Windows 7 x64 SP1.

The boot trace application simply gathers the ETL tracing the OS is already producing, so that would indicate a problem already existed that the additional overhead brought out. Hopefully the system restore worked and you're back up and running though.

I tried it several times to similar result. Boot trace = BSOD. System Restored to before it was installed just fine every time.

If unplugging the OD doesn't help, then how about updating or rolling back the ATI Display driver.

Have also resolved issues by uninstalling or removing from startup the ATI software suite, which is unneeded except for driver unless you are overclocking or have special settings within it.

After that I'd check ndproxy which is LAN, by turning off, updating, rolling back your LAN.
