I would guess from your first report your PC may be having difficulty recognising your disk initially. (Black screen with white cursor - typical if no disk found).
That said, slow booting was a bug/problem for some quite a while back.

will see what the boot is like in the morning, thank you again, john
Do you have Latest BIOS installed? It is a "must" have.
You could try the WinSAT that I told you above, it is not doing any harm to PC, at worst scenario, it stays like it is now, but it could be the "solution".
LODCTR /R did not help, so today I do the WinSAT and see if that helps, yes I updated the bios last week that did not help, thank you
OK. Do that with WinSAT and see.
Now, that only happens if you disconnect completely from mains? If you let it connected to mains but Powered off, that does not happens?
Is that right?
How old is you Mainboard?
hi, I don't normally turn off at the mains, just the off switch, although I did switch off at mains when I went on hols it took just as long when I came back, my main board is about 4 years old, Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd.

OK.
If you RESTART (without Power Off PC), does it take so long or is much quicker?
