Sorry if this is the wrong section in the forums to post this in.
When I first got this computer, which was 2 weeks ago, the bootup was pretty fast, the SSD booted up in about 5 seconds. In the past week, I have not tweeked anything in the BIOS, but my bootup has been very slow. When I start my PC, I just get a black screen with little white writing in the botton saying Express Gate, and then after an amount of time the SSD menu shows up, which used to show up in 5 seconds.
I think this started happening right after I installed my printer drivers, but I uninstalled them but my bootup time was never the same.
When I get into Windows(Vista), my PC is blazing fast. (See sig for rig)
What could be the problem that lead my slow bootup time?
