Perhaps it may be a old copy of windows?

 

It's a good idea to refresh that copy of Windows every once in a while.

Its been like this since when I first built it, My BIOS says the boot device is My SSD and I'm using Win 10 At the moment.

sounds reasonably fast. as in a lot of the time is wasted by the Bios watch out for that.

In Windows 10, the the task manager allows you to see if any startup programs are causing a high impact on your boot time. Press "Ctrl + Shift + Escape" to bring up task manager and go to the "Startup tab". The "Startup Impact" column will tell you if that is the case. Some programs will go into further detail and tell you the amount of milliseconds or seconds the startup programs use. I would go and check these programs to make sure nothing is starting that you don't actually need.

 

Beyond that, make sure all of your drivers are updated to the most recent version. There are plenty of programs out there to check your drivers. I prefer programs from IObit. I trust them as I haven't ever had an issue with anything I have used from them. Sometimes drivers can cause issues like delayed startup time. This includes making sure your BIOS is up to date from your motherboard manufacturer, and that there is no new firmware for your SSD as Techguru before me suggested.

 

Make sure you have all of your Windows Updates installed. 

 

If you do all of this and it still seems slow, let us know.
