Computer extremely slow on bootup, only sometimes

Question

Occasionally, when I turn on my computer it will startup extremely slow, to the point where BIOS boots up just fine but once it gets to Windows, it'll be painfully slow (I'm talking about 3-4 minutes just to go from home screen to windows itself, with everything being unresponsive including inputs from mouse and keyboard being delayed by multiple seconds and the background and taskbar failing to load until multiple seconds or even minutes later and not fixing itself until a full restart)

Device Information:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB
RAM: 32GB DDR5-6000MT/s Corsair Vengeance
SSD: 1. Samsung 980 PRO 2TB (OS Drive)
2. Samsung 970 EVO PLUS 2TB
Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B650-PLUS

Solutions attempted

I've tried to check Event Viewer Critical and Error logs after the slow boot and I've uninstalled a few apps that appeared to have errors, that however didn't seem to fix.

Both SSDs have been tested and are in perfect condition (Both perfect according to Samsung Magician and SSD 1 99% Life according to SeaTools, while the other one has 100%)

Answer 2

Hi ,

In this case, we'll do the following:

Open the command prompt (admin) and run the commands: sfc /scannow and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth. Wait for the process to finish and restart the computer.

Then perform a clean boot and, if you want, uninstall applications you don't use.

When accessing Msconfig, select the diagnostic startup mode and see if there's any slowness when logging in.

Thanks

Hai installato Windows 11 direttamente sul tuo PC tramite USB o hai effettuato l'aggiornamento da Windows 10 a Windows 11?
