Hi,
Recently did a completely clean install of windows 10. Prior to this I had boot times of around 15 seconds - these have now gone to around 40-60s.
On looking at the motherboard I can see that the boot process hangs at error 64 on the mb splash screen for around 20s, then error A2 on a plain black screen for another 20s before loading to the windows screen and into desktop in about 5 seconds.
64 is shown as "CPU DXE initialisation is started"
A2 is shown as "IDE detect"
I'm stumped as to what has caused this.
I did a clean install with only my ssd connected to G1. Installed in UEFI and ACHI. Boot drive is the only one selected at startup. Other hdd drives are connected to G2/3. No overclocking.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
