Windows 7 boot up stalls at "starting windows" screen

One thing I have seen cause this problem on Win 7 is disabling or drastically reducing the size of the paging file. Make sure that hasn't happened and reset it back to the Windows recommended amount to test if it has happened. Windows usually suggests making the paging file the same size as the amount of installed system RAM.

Edit: If you do need to create a paging file, make sure you do not use a solid state drive to house the file if you have any installed in your computer. Paging files will severely reduce the life of the SSD due to excessive writes.

Err... It hard to teach..

since u don't know what it is don't touch the services...

There a third parties apps than give description / help identifies the bloatware, but since i'm not using one, cannot give recommendation..

or u could try and error, disable one in start up see if any apps failed if it fine disable another one, google also helps...

(if some apps failed u can enable it again at worst it can be enabled via safe mode)
