Hi There,

Recently my PC started hanging after the Windows colours start swirling around and it said "Starting Windows"; i.e after that screen and just before the login screen, the screen goes black and the cursor flickers a bit then goes into the "busy" circle, and then after about 10 seconds it goes to the login screen.

I initially thought the problem was from SolidWorks 2015/16 that I installed just before, and narrowed it down to the FlexNet Licensing Service from the SolidWorks package (as it remained on my system after I uninstalled SW and the issue still remained). I did a system restore to get rid of the FlexNet service, and it worked for a while but after booting up my PC today, it seems the issue is back again -.-

So I think it may be down to a recent Adobe Reader XI update, but I'm not sure. I've already completed a bootlog through msconfig.exe, but I can't seem to find the upload link :L
Let me know if you know how to do it.

There's a lot of "Did Not Load..." in that log though, which is worrying but I'll leave that to the experts.

Cheers for helping,

Mark

Bootlog.txt - - open file, copy & paste contents into a new post on this thread.

However, I won't be reading the log errors, someone else will have to help you with those, it's not my area of expertise.
So if you'd rather start a new thread with the log contents, that's okay too. Just be sure to give it a different title than this existing thread or it may get deleted.

The log way exceeds 65000 characters; even when I split it into 3 or 4 chunks those exceed it each, so if there's any file hosting service you're aware of in which I can post a link, I could do that...
