Rlyeh Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 I've been having problems with Windows 7 booting very slow, rebooting is quick. Been following the advice in However xperf won't convert my current etl file to xml, saying there is 40982 Events lost.https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=54F60AF2014E6B09&resid=54F60AF2014E6B09%21185&authkey=AKU-3eoAz-ajpB8One I did convert shows PreSMSS taking over 200k ms.
MagicAndre1981 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 starting the Western Digital WD VelociRaptor WD3000HLFS takes a lot of time. Next reading the NTFS meta data is slow. Connect the HDD to a different port and make sure you use AHCI.
Rlyeh Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Sorry, no difference. Was already using AHCI. Checked the HD with chkdsk and no errors, nor in event viewer.
MagicAndre1981 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 to which ports do you connect the HDD? Is this a port from the chipset or a extra SATA chip ?
Rlyeh Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Think its the chipset, it (and a second HDD) are plugged into the SATA 2 ports on the main board, GA-X58A-UD5 rev 1 http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3304#ov
MagicAndre1981 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 the board has 3 different controllers (in chipset, JMiron and Marvel). Try all ports/controllers and look if this makes a difference.
