Massive boot delay, Win7
This only started happening lately, and I haven't installed anything that I can think off.
The problem is the boot up. It gets to the welcome screen pretty fast as you'd expect with an SSD. But then I get a black screen with just a cursor for several minutes before the desktop appears.
I used msconfig to turn off startup items one by one, but nothing cured it. However, if I change to 'diagnostic startup' loading only the basics, it boots super fast.
So how do I find out what's causing the delay? Obviously something is taking an eternity to load, but I can't find what it is.
