ROG Boot Screen

[Cameron Hodgson]

Hello,

I've been running into an issue that's really more of a hindrance than a dead stop.
Every time I restart my computer and attempt to boot back up, my computer will hang on the Republic Of Gamers splash screen with the loading wheel spinning.

It often hangs on this screen for 5+ minutes. Sometimes if I hit keys on my keyboard if seems to trigger it to boot up but that may be more of a placebo. 

Once the system fully boots up, I have zero issues. It's only when actually trying to boot up issues occur. 

My motherboard is an Asus Maximus XI Hero and my boot drive is a Samsung 970 EVO. 
Not sure if this is relevant but my mouse and keyboard are both wireless with USB dongles plugged into front of my PC. Thought it may be related to it not detecting a mouse and keyboard and hanging because of that, but that's just an uneducated guess.

it might be looking at a boot device that is considered present but not responding , like a network boot or usb drive that's plugged in so check the boot order
