Okay, disable your load-on-boot apps and turn some settings off - done

Then download some skins and covers...seriously, if you're trying to find an excuse to use an ancient OS, your problem - we won't recommend an insecure and old OS

OP probably has a shitton of malware and viruses installed, but blames Windows for it.

That's more of a bottleneck than the OS tbh...

3470's aren't bad for fucking around in Windows 10 though... They're still plenty capable.

I imagine the OP is annoyed that the OS doesn't boot instantly like a modern CPU on a 4GB/s NVMe drive so he's blaming the OS. And some viruses here and there from downloading fun stuff

So you are using a low-end SATA SSD and complaining that it takes ~10 seconds to boot? Welp, welcome to Earth.

Ah, that explains it. Kingston's SSD's are not exactly known to be good performers when compared to Samsung's EVO lineup or Crucial's MX series...

HyperX branded ones are but his is literally the cheapest SSD on the market that I'd describe as usable - to be expected that it won't be like a 970 Pro

That's not a particularly fast SSD to begin with. Also, have you made sure that it's connected to a SATA3-port and not a SATA2-port and that you have AHCI enabled?

The OP is expecting his A400 to perform like a 970 Pro - that's not possible with the Ivy CPU since there is no NVMe support, latency is higher and the BIOS is likely Legacy as well.

Well, what kinds of read-speeds are you getting from that SSD? If they're ~250MB/s or less, then it's running in SATA2-mode.

Then you are getting the speeds you should be getting from it. You literally can't get more by going to Windows 7 because the SSD can't do more than that, period.

You're not really making any point. The OP's i5-3470 is not bottlenecking their system in terms of boot times.

What I'm trying to say is - the OP is expecting miracles from his system and blaming the OS
