Computer freezes on startup

Yeah. I can still move my mouse around but everything else is frozen.

But does it remain frozen or does it unfreeze after a while? (like wait atleast 2 minutes).

 

You can try (before it freezes) to type in msconfig.exe (press windows key and type), navigate to the 'services' tab, click (leftbottom) "hide all microsoft" and then disable all. This is a "clean boot". If this solves it, you can one-by-one start enabling them again (make sure to hide all microsoft every time) until you find the culprit.

 

You wouldn't happen to use solidworks right? I've had this exact same thing because of solidworks.

That worked. Not sure what it was yet but I'll keep looking. I don't have solidworks.

 

Thank you!
