Windows slow to respond after startup with new Ryzen 3000

So after quite some time i replaced my trusty 3570k with a new amd 3600x and a msi b450 tomahawk max. On my old pc I got used to start using windows right as I saw the Desktop appear after startup. Now I have to wait about a minute before I can access any folder either on my boot ssd or my hdd after startup. Also when I press the shutdown button it takes like 15sec before the shutdown actually begins.

Already reinstalled windows and newest updates, tried the ram with and without xmp, replacing the sata cables and changing sata slots, removed folders from the quick-access, I‘m running the latest bios (abba-update is not released for this mb) and disabled cortana without any success. Also haven‘t changed any programs on the pc after the upgrade.

my setup: b450 tomahawk max, ryzen 3600x, 2x8gb 3200 cl15 ram, rtx 2070super, 250gb samsung 750 evo ssd, 1tb WD black hdd

 

I hope someone has any idea what causes this issue. Thanks.

How fast does your system boot to the Windows desktop? If that's slow as well it's either hardware or a BIOS setting rather than Windows.

 

When installing Windows make sure you've set the boot option to UEFI, SATA controller mode to AHCI, and only connect the boot drive to avoid setup writing a boot partition to the wrong drive. Connect other drives when you're done installing Windows, and make sure the boot order is still set correctly.

After that, make sure you have installed the latest chipset drivers, as well as the latest drivers for your SATA controllers. Also update all other drivers, including GPU and audio.

Yes, I made those changes in the bios and updated the chipset drivers as well as all the other mentioned drivers. My boot times are around 20sec which seems to be normal for ryzen 3000. Even without the hdd the problem persists.

Is Windows itself up to date? The update service shouldn't have such a big impact on a modern system, but it can never hurt to check.

 

Is any other software installed? And does anything start with Windows? You can open task manager, click "more details" if needed, open the startup tab and check if anything is listed as having a large influence on startup.

 

And finally, Samsung has a tool for checking the health of their SSDs called Samsung Magician. Install and run it to check if your SSD is still in good working order.

Windows is up to date. Like I said, I didn‘t change anything on the ssd or on the startup programs. On my intel processor everything ran well just days ago, so it‘s probably not the ssd/harddrive.

Is it a fresh install of Windows? Or have you simply moved over the SSD? If so, try uninstalling any drivers left from the Intel based system.

If it is a clean install, run Samsung Magician anyway and benchmark the SSD. It's not very likely, but maybe the particular combination of SSD and SATA controller don't play nice together. If you get numbers far below what they should be, it's definitely storage related. If not, something else is the culprit.

Either way, I'd recommand installing the latest chipset drivers from AMD as they are more recent than the ones offered by MSI, as well as getting the BIOS update from MSI which was released yesterday and see if that helps.

I recommend reading previous posts before posting - most of answers to your questions are there. Even in first post where OP says that he made reinstall.
