Hi everyone, I really need some help with this please.
I have just built my new gaming rig, spent a hell of a lot on it as I wanted it to be great, and it "Should" have been a MASSIVE improvement over the piece of junk I was using for the past few years......... BUT, it pains me to have to say I am really disappointed, there must be something wrong, surely!!
The problem I'm having is the boot up, it takes forever! I wasn't expecting it to boot up in 5 seconds flat, but it's taking nearly 2 minutes, surely that can't be right!?! I am a complete noob regarding SSD's but I have been reading up so I knew what to do when I first installed it, like TRIM and AHCI are enabled, but other than that I'm lost with how to set them up or what to check.
Typical boot goes like this: power on, 3 seconds MoBo splash, windows splash 8-10 seconds, desktop screen.................. 1 minute 30 seconds later it's loaded and it's ready. I don't have a million programs trying to run at start up just a few like the ASUS AI Suite II, Intel Rapid Storage Tech which I haven't disabled yet. I benched it and the results are included.
So what could it be, I'm really lost as to why it's taking so long???
This is my build: 3570k (stock clock at the moment), 8GB Corsair Vengeance, Samsung 830 256GB SSD, ASUS Z77 Sabertooth.
Please any help would be amazing,
Thank you.
