An x570 with no ssd? C'mon man priorities. I'm not sure why a pc would take hours to load (this isn't my area of particular knowledge) but check to see if theres anything wrong with the speeds of your drive (once I had a hard drive running at 4mbps) and if you have any bloatware/malware. And god, please get a SSD. Seriously, if you can afford a x570 you can affored a ssd.

Check the drive speeds. That's all the advice I can really offer.

In the Bios, there should be an option to run diagnostics of the pc/hard drive. If you don't know how to get into the Bios search up: 'How to get into Asrock x570

1. bios

loading Asrock screen for hours

what happens if you disconnect the hd and then boot?  does it go straight to the insert bootable media screen?

Yes

how long have you had this hard drive?

The hard drive could be damage?

 

Two things i would recommend would be defragmentation and deleting temporary files ( personally i would cut and paste them elsewhere in as a precaution, but that me being overly cautious).

 

Also SSD's aren't expensive anymore, you can always buy a 128GB SSD then run windows on that and store files on HDD.

in the UK SSD's are like £20 for 128GB. 

Just thought i would let you know, in case your not up to date on their pricing,( i get its probably not the best time to be buying SSD, in the state the world )
