    Slow boot and irritating issues while running


    Hey guys,
    I have the 64 Bit version of Win 10 on my custom built PC and I'd like to ask for your help.
    So about 2 weeks ago I noticed that everytime I boot into Windows, before the Lock Screen shows up, there's a black screen with cursor and I have to wait about one minute before the Lock Screen shows up
    Since yesterday it takes about 5 for the Windows logo to disappear and then the usual Lock Screen thing happens, and after it finally booted to the desktop some programs and even the recycle bin take about 2 minutes to start...
    I have a Samsung 850 Evo 250GB SSD so this shouldn't happen. It scores normally in Crystal disk mark.
    Another thing that I noticed is that usually the backlight on my keyboard and mous turns on after the OS has fully loaded, but now they turn on 10 seconds after the Windows logo appears, turn off then back on after 5 minutes when the OS has loaded.

    Specs:
    AMD FX 8350 @ 4.7 GHz OC
    Gigabyte 990FXA UD5
    12 GB Dual Channel
    GTX 980 Ti reference
    Samsung 850 Evo 250GB
    Coolermaster V650 PSU
    Custom watercooling loop

    Thanks. :)

    The same happened to me on a clean w10 x64 on a laptop. I don't know why some PCs are blazing fast booting and others are like a snail (due to that annoying pause). Maybe checking event viewer could shed some light on that issue.
