Logitech is KNOWN for having issues with Windows 7. You have 2 Logitech items on startup. Both of which can easily cause this 3-4 minute pause from the time you load to the time you can do anything. Did you use them before? you never stated. Every process you have load up causes windows to take longer to load to the desktop and be able to use it. While you may think 12 items isnt much. That is almost triple what i have. Does that tell you something?
What could have changed? Drivers. Updates installed to patch things. The file system could be corrupted, the hard drive could have bad sectors. shall i go on? there is so much at work other than jsut a simple reinstall of the OS. Have you done a sfc /scannow check? Have you done a checkdsk /r /f check? None of which is stated?
I never said i was a Pro. Never in ANY of my comments any where on this site have i ever made a reference to myself in such a manner. Your RAM could be going faulty, your hard drive could be getting bad sectors, your video card could be going bad cause of a mishap with the fan replacement. How do we know these things? We dont. There is no way for us to test for them or account for such things, yet you want everything explained as if there is a answer. It is a PC. Things happen for no reason more times than not. We cant explain in great detail everything that happens to a PC without us being there using it.
We have no clue what you do on the machine daily. We have no idea how much you have install, have uninstalled, what sites you have gone to, what programs you are using, how long you have had the hardware and it goes on. All of these things are factors into what can possibly go wrong. We have no clue about any of it yet you want us to explain why you got more time for a startup issue? How can we possibly explain it?
I can give you reason after reason of what "could" have happened. I can sit here and give you reason after reason of what "should" happen. I can sit here and give you example after example of optimal conditions. That doesnt mean a darn thing. My PC will not act that way and yours will not act like mine. There is no reason for it.
Why can we have 2 identical machines right down to the power supply built by Dell and 1 will fail and BSoD constantly but yet the other wont? Everything is the same but one is problematic. there is no way to explain it. All we can do is suggest things to try. you have tried them. There is nothing more we can say as there is not going to be a answer that any person on this planet can give you. Only you have every little piece of data about the machine and only you know its quirks.
Am i ignorant cause i know and understand this much? Perhaps. but you can here looking for help and when we cant provide answers you get upset with us. I have given you so much information and answers already. Yet you seem to think that just because something that happened in the past should dictate how your PC works now is incorrect on every level. It doesnt matter what your system acted like 2 months ago. that is a lifetime in tech terms. Maybe a reinstall will fix it? I dont know. I cant answer that. There is no answer.
