Solved: How I Resolved Slow Boot Issue in Windows 11

Copper Contributor

I recently encountered a frustrating issue with my Windows 11 system - an extremely slow boot process that involved multiple black screens and would take upwards of twenty minutes to complete. Despite diligently researching and attempting various fixes without success, I eventually decided to take a break and address the problem later. 

 

Upon returning, I discovered that a faulty ROM drive was to blame for the slow boot. After replacing it and restarting the system, the issue was completely resolved - a simple solution to what had seemed like a complex problem. 

 

My system currently consists of a 120GB SSD, 16GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce GT 730 GPU. I plan to upgrade the GPU to 32GB soon, and also hope to successfully clone a 1TB SSD in the near future. For now, however, the system boots up smoothly without any delays. I share this experience in the hopes that it may assist others facing a similar challenge.
