Slow Boot - dxgkrnl.sys Not Loading
I know. This has been seen before. I can find the issue all over, but can't seem to find a solution that works for me. This is on a fresh install of Windows 11. It takes about 4 minuets before I can...
Do I smell bad or something? lol. I doubt I've "stumped" the internet. I have this issue posed on other forums, all with exactly zero responses. Never had that happen before.
Anyway, I found this interesting. I updated my bios, then disabled my wi-fi and did another fresh install of windows 10 (it seems to be the faster of the two). I disabled all updates (especially driver updates), turned my wi-fi back on and installed the Nvidia drivers for my GTX 980ti. Same issue. I was convinced this had something to do with my motherboard intel drivers. I think next I will try a fresh install without installing ANY display drivers and see what happens, then maybe a fresh install with a GTX 970 I have lying around.
Maybe I'm diving down the wrong rabbit hole, I don't know. I'm about at the end of my knowledge here. I will keep posting little updates in the hopes that someone sees this.
