Hi, first time posting here.
I have a custom built PC, my very first, from 2014. I've since completed a newer build, but am looking to get the old one in as decent shape as possible to hopefully sell.
After a fresh Windows 10 install it seems to be 90% perfect with only this one problem. When I turn it on after an extended period of not using it (e.g. first thing in the morning), it's extremely slow to boot, and repeatedly hangs and freezes. Sometimes it shakes this off and begins functioning properly, but other times it forces itself to reboot. Either way, rebooting causes it to boot normally and quickly, and otherwise behave completely as expected.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I've run tests on the CPU and RAM and both seem healthy.
Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz
MoBo: Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5
RAM: Kingston 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR3-1600 CL10
SSD: WD Blue 3D NAND 500GB (boot drive)
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1 TB 3.5" 7200RPM
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 2 GB WINDFORCE
PSU: Corsair CX 600 W 80+ Bronze
