Hi
After finally purchasing all my upgraded products (see sig) I seem to be getting a strange error just after windows boots.
Post screen and windows loading screen basically last about 3 seconds each and then windows loads and everything seems fine for about 5 Seconds, I'll then try to load an application (browser or windows explorer etc) and the system becomes unresponsive. If I ctrl alt del I get the blue windows loading screen with the status 'Preparing Security Options' displaying. This can last from 30 seconds up to a minute before I see the task manager options etc. After this the system runs flawless.
The little information available I have found on this suggests a HDD fault, my SSD is brand new and have the latest firmware for the model (1.3.3), others say its an undetectable virus, but it started straight after a fresh install.
The system passes hours MEM Tests and Prime95 etc, and the OS as I mentioned was a fresh install that's only a few weeks old after I bought all my new hardware.
Any ideas people?
Cheers
