Why does Windows 10 take so F****** long to boot?

Hey guys, so i asked this question a few weeks back but it was late at night and no one answered so here it goes again.

So windows 10 boots really slowly. Like real slow. First you see the loading icon for 30 seconds, then the screen goes black for a few secs and then the loading symbol comes back again...

But this times it pixelated and i'm sitting here for 2 minutes watching it go round and round and round. Then when it stops i wait another 20 seconds then for some reason the windows 7 boot sound plays even tho its a fresh install of windows 10. A few seconds later my mouse cursor shows up on the screen, then finally it takes me to the login screen and from there everything is hunky dory.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance :P

I did a fresh install. 3 times already. And its the same issue. Maybe the pixelated loading symbol has something to do with the video drivers?

BIOS settings can have a pretty big impact on boot times depending on how you have boot configured, at least from my experience.

Oh. I'm using Windows Embedded 7, so, it's in msconfig there.

 

Then, check what startup programs do you have in taskmgr.
