From the time I hit the Power Button on my computer to the time the hard drive finally stops churning away, is 3:30 secs. The desktop loads up and I have internet and all that at around 1:30. But even though my desktop is loaded...or loading I guess, it takes another 2mins. for the hd to stop loading. I have ran malware byte and found Pup.Optional.Amonetize, which promptly quarantined and removed. I didn't noticed this issue before that malware and I thought it would be back to normal, but no dice :( Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have also ran AdwCleaner, JRT, Hitman Pro, Spybot after running malware bytes only to find nothing. Also did a Disk Cleanup as well as ChkDsk (which was fine)

Oh yes, I did go through msconfig and take out any unwanted programs, which were only a couple. Right now there are: (5) Adobe Updater Startup Utility, Nvidia Geforce Experience, Epson Status Monitor 3, EEventManager Application and USB 3.0 Monitor.
Thank you for the reply,
