    Hello.

    I got now black screen at startup between Welcome screen and windows globe,it stays about 40-50 sec.
    At the log on Windows-Diagnostics-Performance it says that explorer.ex and svchost.exe caused delayed start. I ve got this problem about 2 days ago.

    Is there any tip how to do to get rid of it,and how to know what exactly caused this issue.

    Thanx.

    hate to say but every system i have seen this on the only fix was a format and full fresh install then it was fine after that. imo its prob some driver or file conflict try lowering the startup timout in the startup box. type msconfig the the boot tab then look for the timeout. what does it say. lower it some and see if that helps

    Thank you guys for responding,that takes a while!!!
    But the issue is now fixed it self and the start up goes well without BS, i don`t know why,i guess because of installing the updates.

    Thanx.
