January 10, 201412 yr on the picture I can see that the Disk is busy all the time. So it looks like the disk is the bottleneck.Yes, i'm think so. But, i'm have not solution for this.
January 13, 201412 yr my computer was nice and fast up untill recently when i tried out microsofts virtual machine setup to fix a java issue in another program. now i have 5 mins load times from the time i hit login. heres a link to the xml output from tonights trace. i hope someone can help figure this out cause i'm getting ready for another fresh install if it stays like this for much longerhttps://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=BCDC88B7DE372814%211420
January 13, 201412 yr ok here's a link to the zipped ETL file. thanks for looking at ithttps://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=BCDC88B7DE372814%211429
January 13, 201412 yr well found part of the problem at least, intel 3770k processors don't support virtualization. so even though it's enabled in the bios installing hyper-v causes the system to hang when loading the services after login. uninstalled hyper-v and the 5 min boot time drops back down to under 30 seconds
January 14, 201412 yr Author the 3770k does support VT-x, but Hyper-V sucks completely. Use VMware Player or Virtualbox instead.
February 1, 201412 yr Greetings MagicAndre I have a toshiba laptop that is about 5 days old. On every 4th or 5th boot the computer will hang at boot for about 15mins. I disabled fast boot and this didn't do any difference. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28370259/summary_boot.xml is a link to my Summaryboot.xml file. could you please read it and see if you can see what is causing it?Many Thanks in advance, Bensummary_boot.xml

It still was very slow to boot but it was faster. I then found the log file for the Inter storage driver, it stated that it was unable to set current power management settings in drive which stopped it from allowing the disk to operate at full speed. I disabled power management for the hard drive and now it starts within 20 seconds.Thanks for the advice and help MagicAndre.Cheers, Ben

February 7, 201412 yr Andre,Is there any bad effect if the power management for the hard disk is disabled? 20s of booting time sounds pretty nice!
February 7, 201412 yr Author it consumes a bit more power, but there are no delays when you access the drive. It no longer needs to be wake up.
February 8, 201412 yr Thanks for replying, Andre. But now, I want to know if it is a bad idea when we don't let the hard disk sleep or rest at all! Will the disablement of the power reduce the durability of a hard disk? Power consumption is less important to me btw.
