Very Slow Start-up

I don't know if this is the right place for posting this problem, but I can't see a problem-related section on this forum. Please move this topic to its right place if necessary.


So, I have an annoying problem with Bitdefender Internet Security 2013. When I turn on my computer, it takes a very very long time till the Windows7 login appears. After the Windows loading logo dissappears, the mouse pointer appears, but the background stays black for about a minute, then the blue background of Login screen appears with the password input box, and then, after ~5 seconds, the user image appears above the password input box, and then I can finally log in.


I don't know where the problem comes from. I will post below my laptop configuration.


Processor: Intel Core i7 Ivy Bridge 2.4 GHz


Memory: 8 GB DDR3


HDD: 500 GB (not SSD)


Video: nVidia GeForce GT 640M


OS: Windows7 Professional


I am looking forward to your response.

    Here's something I had bookmarked from awhile back, it's a set of techniques to find out what's causing your slow boot issues. If you follow the techniques you should be able to identify where there root cause problem is. Also, when was the last time you did a boot time defrag or chkdisk of your system volume?

    Maybe there are also a lot of start up programs configured to launch at start up. You might want to check at Run, the msconfig and the start up tab. smile2.png
