SUPER Slow Boot Time. Please Help!

Forum Systems : New Build SUPER Slow Boot Time. Please Help!

Word :    Username :           
 

I recently built a new system using the components listed in my signature below. Average system boot time is almost 5 mins with 4 of those mins being after post, during OS load .

I have tried reinstaling OS twice. Ive tried boooting with diagnostic startup. Ive tried registry fixing software. Nothing helps. Could this be a BIOS problem?

Other than super slow boot time the system performs very well. This is my first Core i7 build and benchmarks seem to be where they should. It is very frustrating when trying to overlcock and having to wait 5 mins every time I have to reboot.

Also I sometimes turn my PC off at night and boot times the next day are about twice as long at 10 mins. During cold boots POST also takes several minutes.

Please Help!
