So this came out of nowhere. I boot up my PC like normal and the login takes forever to load me in. Internet, wired or wireless, takes a while to connect properly, and I cannot open or close applications for a good long while. Eventually my entire PC freezes and i am left stuck until it calms down. After all of this my PC behaves like normal, but this occurs on startup every time I boot in and it just started an hour ago.

I have never had an issue like this on my PC as it has behaved for as long as I have had it.

I should also note that I have tried several fixes such as disabling fast boot in the power settings in control panel. I have read that updating my graphics card drivers can fix this but I currently am not able to install them right now.

Is there any other way to possibly fix this? It makes me afraid to power on my system.
