Basically guy M14X R2 great machine but a problem has came about, when i start my laptop after log on it takes about 30 seconds to go from welcome to desktop and even then its still loading shortcuts and tray icons, i know its small but kinda annoying for a £900 laptop.
Booted up on safe mode and i went really fast, so im guessing its a start up program so i disabled some but can determine which other ones are safe to disable. Still slow boot with only these active would be grateful for some assistance.![]()
Also all is up to date even bios.

Do you recall a rough date of when this started? You could try a system restore and see if that does it.

Disable all and then enable them 1 by one until you find the one that is causing the issue.
