The systems boots up and passes the BIOS splash screen, but hangs for about 6 minutes on the Windows boot splash screen with the spinning dots while the loading symbol spins. The peripherals don't receive power until the moment before the system finally goes to the Windows login screen.

Here is my system:

OS: Windows 10 (All updates installed)
CPU: Ryzen 1700 (Stable OC to 3.8GHz)
Motherboard: ASUS Strix B350-F (Latest BIOS installed)
Memory: 32gb Corsair Vengence 2400MHz
Boot Drive: WD Black M.2 SSD
Storage: WD White 1tb, 128gb SSD, WD Red 6tb
PSU: Corsair Gold Rated 850W Modular
 
Wondering:

"Boot Drive: WD Black M.2 SSD
Storage: WD White 1tb, 128gb SSD, WD Red 6tb"

Check the boot order in BIOS.

Disconnect the Storage drives and determine if the system boots as expected.

Then add back the drives one by one in various orders. Be sure that power and data connections are fully and firmly in place.

Look for some common pattern or setup that leads to the delayed startup.

 
Hi, im having the same problem. The asus logo stays for like 30 seconds, then a black screen with a white spinning wheel (lagging a bit) or just a cursor loading with the blue circle which goes away in 2-3 minutes, then the windows logo and it finally boots. What i have tried and did not work :
Disabling all my programs from startup
Stopping all the services
Uninstalling my graphics card driver
Installing an oldest version for my graphics card driver
Uninstalling my antivirus
General scanning of all the files in the pc
Chkdsk in cmd
Cleaning the temporary files with ccleaner
Defragmenting my hard disk
Disabling fast startup
Unplugging all my devices from the laptop
Checking for registry errors
Doing some things in the bios like setting the first and the only boot option to the hard drive i have on my laptop
And that's all, i think i will have to reinstall my windows, although the last reinstall i did was 4 months ago
