This is the primary error you're experiencing. dxgkrnl.sys is the kernel-mode driver for the DirectX graphics component. Its failure is likely causing the slow boot times. There's no clear solution for this issue, as it's usually related to a specific hardware or driver configuration.

Oh well. Thanks anyways.
