PC Boots slow now.

[Treyhu2014]

Hello all,

I have had my PC a little over a year and I haven't had any problems with it up until now. My PC takes forever to boot up now. I have a EVGA Z97 Classifed mobo and a Samsung 850 evo 500gb with Windows 10. About 8 months ago I started realizing my PC is taking longer to start up but it wasn't a very big deal to me because it was just a couple seconds longer. However, recently every time I turn it on it will turn on and then it would just sit there and beep, showing my mobo's logo on the screen. It takes up to 45 seconds to get off the screen and constant beeping from the motherboard. Then, when it finally starts up my peripherals: keyboard, mouse, and audio interface isn't turning on or lighting up. It takes about 25 to 35 seconds for them to light up and turn on, so then I can log in to my PC. After that< everything run perfectly, boot times on games, loading applications, and stuff like that.

Things I've tried:
-Re-installing windows
-updating any and all drivers
-Switching BIOS channels on mobo


PC Specs:
-i7 4790k no OC
-32 gigs RAM Dominators
-GTX 980ti
-EVGA Z97 Classified mobo
-Samsung 850 evo 500gb

Run Samsung magician software to check the performance and health of your drive first but that really sounds like a motherboard problem.
When you first turn the power on the PC their a lot of steps that the motherboard does to check your system and all the beeping does not sound good since it eventually starts.

Should I try re-seating the SATA cable in the mobo and drive? Or maybe try another SATA port on the mobo?

I tried downloading the Samsung software and it didn't run. Is there any way you could link me to this download?
