Very long WIN10 loading time after installing new CPU

[PhanicKnight]

So today I replaced my 3700X with the 5700X on my Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming board - latest BIOS F63c installed. First time I turned the PC on I got the 'new cpu installed ftpm nv corrupted' message, and since I never used BitLocker I used the reset ftpm option. PC booted into BIOS, I loaded factory optimal settings and restarted. (CSM is enabled in my BIOS)

It got to the Windows 10 loading screen, and it just wouldn't stop loading, it was going for at least 2 minutes. I restarted it several times without change. Then I reset CMOS, turned on my PC and it booted and loaded into Windows instantly like a normal NVMe would. To make sure it's fixed, I restarted again, and the same thing happened again, loading screen going for ~2 minutes, at which point I decided to completely reinstall Windows.

After I did so, when I installed some drivers and went to restart my PC, the same thing happened. Only this time I wanted to see how long it will go for - and turns out it doesn't not load, it actually loads Windows but for some reason it takes 2-3 times.

Any help would be so appreciated..

Update AMD driver software maybe

Chipset drivers are all updated

Ok

Did you install in UEFI mode ?

Try to remove CSM as well

I'm not sure how would I check if I installed in UEFI mode. This is what my system32 says.

 

I tried to turn CSM off, but it restarted and loaded directly into BIOS, and it didn't show any SSDs or HDDs in the boot options.

It says you're in Legacy mode, so you need CSM but I think that's why it's so slow

You should reinstall in UEFI mode, but idk how...

I was supposing that it was automatically the case for a new install on a recent machine,  when I upgraded from a 4770K to a 3900X I couldn't use my old windows boot drive and had to reinstall it in UEFI

I could reinstall it in UEFI mode if I knew how. But wouldn't that also make my Windows boot slow with my previous CPU as well? I wasn't experiencing this until I installed the 5700X

Huh I don't think it'll be a problem, 3700X is recent as well

I understand it won't be a problem, but if the Legacy mode is the issue with slow loading time, wouldn't I also see it while using the 3700X previously?

 

Because this issue only came up with my new CPU, even tho other than that, CPU works perfectly.

Makes sense... But anyway UEFI mode is just better, so no reason not to do it

I did kinda same update than you, from 3900X to 5900X, and had 0 issue, it was plug and play

I will try and reinstall it in UEFI mode, but if that doesn't work, I've no idea what to do... thanks

Really weird... So when you boot the 3700x it's fast but takes 2 min with the 5700x every time?

It's normal for 1st boot on a new CPU to be long due to bios, but after that it should go back to normal

First boot today went normal, booted in ~5 seconds. Sigh of relief, but we'll see how it goes when I have to restart it

Just to update you, I just restarted my PC after installing Photoshop, and it was stuck on the Windows loading screen for 90 seconds, sooooo nope, nothing changed!
