Windows 10 restart needed to properly start up PC

[acoustikarl]

I am running Win10 Pro 64 bit on a desktop. I am having issues where the computer freezes and I am unable to reset it without doing a hard shutdown. I noticed that I was not getting the startup chime when first booting up the computer. By restarting once I get to the login page it will play the startup chime and then everything seems to work properly.

Any one have any ideas what may be going on?

Try disabling "Fast Startup" then reboot your PC, it might help. How to disable: tenforums.com/tutorials/4189-turn-off-fast-startup-windows-10-a.html

That did the trick. Ironically it now starts up faster than it did before.
