I'm rocking a gtx 770 that is starting to be just enough to run new games smoothly on medium settings.

I was already thinking about upgrading and getting a opportunity to get it for free seems nice.

Does anyone use Facebook on the computer, and if so, search for something called "Koobface". It's a nasty Facebook related bug that causes a slew of problems on any computer that gets infected, up to and not limited to the fake FBI lockout hijack. ADWCleaner will be the best program to deal with that.

My computer doesn't show anything named koobface. This doesn't mean it isn't there but I am not a big Facebook user (2 times a month is much). I will download ADWCleaner tomorrow and see if that fixes anything.

Operating system.

Have you used any New hardware recently? I got a Corsair Vengeance K95 keyboard not too long ago and those damn keyboard drivers play up with my boot and shutdown times from time to time. Seems to be really bad when I use USB 3.0.

Which reminds me, if you have any peripherals plugged into USB 3.0 ports, try moving them to 2.0 ports and see if reboots are quicker

The only hardware i added recently is a ps4 controller. It isn't plugged in unless I'm using it. My mouse and keyboard are plugged into usb 2.0. The only peripheral I have added recently that is constantly plugged in is my headphone via a 3mm jack. So i don't think that is my problem but it is really nice that people are helping. 

Does anybody know if this is a bios or a os problem?

Did you check for malware? 

I just did again and it doesn't report anyting

Did you check for malware? 

I am running one now to check again. I think the last time i did it was after my problem started.

As the title says I have an issue with my boot/shutdown time. for about 1,5 year it has been fine but a couple of days ago it really slowed down without me changing anything that should infect this issue. 
 
I will try to describe my problem a little more specific.

• when booting my secondary screen turns on and shows the windows start up animation. My primary screen takes about 10 sec longer.
• After some time my pc goes to the login screen. I had this turned off so it would go directly to my desktop.
• While using my computer I don't really notice any differences.
• When shutting down i get the usual animation and my screens and mouse (usb power) turn off, but my data light (i don't know how it is called, it's the light that flickers when you write/read data) keeps flickering for 2 min then it turns off

specs:

• OS: windows 10 home edition 64 bit version 1511
• CPU: i7-4771
• Motherboard: MSI Z97-Gaming 5
• RAM: 16gb (2x8) DDR3
• Boot drive: Samsung 850 evo ssd
• Video card: MSI GTX770 2gb
• PSU: 620W
• Primary screen: Dell U2414H
• Secondary screen: iiyama prolite E2483HS
• BIOS version: E7917IMS V1.0

Thanks in advance

Dayum... you got your rig down and everything.  That is my 10K post count plan.

maybe I should introduce you to the forums

I did not touch a thing in "Profile" for over 2000 posts...

 

...then I added a Profile pic...

In that case I am already past that point. Does that make my a quick learner?

no?
