    Try this:
    Open an Elevated Command Prompt and type : LODCTR /R, Press Enter and reboot and see.

    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.

    What is your build number? (Windows key + R, winver).

    Repeat the command again. Sometimes the first time there is that error.
    If that did not help, try this:
    Navigate to C:\windows\performance\winsat\datastore and delete all xml files.
    Next, type in a elevated command prompt : Winsat Formal -Clean
    Reboot

    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".

    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?

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