Long loading and sleep problems

Have you installed all the chipset drivers for the new mobo?

 

Edit: I'm pretty confident that the desktop taking a long while to load would be because Windows is trying to validate the license, since you've changed 'your computer' according to Microsoft's EULA. (Microsoft considers a motherboard change a system change)

 

While the desktop is loading, is your screen black?

OK, so I recently upgraded my gaming system from an A8-7600 and an A88X-Pro from Asus to a FX-8350 and a 970 Extreme 4 from AsRock (I installed all new drivers and such). What i have been noticing and annoyeds by is whenever i start my system and put in my windows 8.1 PIN, I then have to wait a minute or more for it to actually log me in, and then 2-3 minutes more for my desktop to load. Also, if I try to sleep my computer, the system instead shuts down, I also had noticed these problems for 1-2 times when I first built this system, but after 2 times it NEVER happened again. Please help.

 

Specs:

Fx-8350 @ 4.00Ghz (no OC)

AsRock 970 Extreme 4

8 GB DDR3 @ 1800Mhz

1Tb WD Blue (basic storage)

256GB Kingstion SSD (boot and games)

Radeon HD 6970 @ 905Mhz (OC)

[insert stuffs here]

I'm not too sure, if they're not on the manufacturer site then Windows should install them automatically. I swapped hard drives out of two laptops today because one stopped working - when I put it into the new laptop and popped open Device Manager it was pretty much installing everything.

 

Open device manager and see if there's any 'unknown device' listed
