Windows 10 Long delay during bootup?

[grandkodiak]

After the windows splash screen during boot up, all the USB devices turn off... there is a roughly 60 second delay, they come back on, and it boots into Windows fine.

Ideas?

I dual booted into Ubuntu and USB stays on the entire time and there is no delay. I also tried booting from a live ubuntu usb just for giggles and same effect (granted longer boot just because its on usb)

Asus mboard drivers are up to date. everything looks good in bios? and no wonkyness after log in.

The issue you are facing with USB devices turning off after the Windows splash screen during boot up could be related to power settings, USB drivers, or the Fast Startup feature in Windows. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue: 1. Disable Fast Startup: - In Windows, go to Control Panel > Power Options > Choose what the power buttons do. - Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable." - Uncheck the "Turn on fast startup" option. - Save changes and reboot to see if this resolves the issue. 2. Update USB Drivers: - Ensure that your USB drivers are up to date. You can update them through Device Manager. - Right-click on the Start button, select Device Manager. - Expand the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" category, right-click on each USB Root Hub, select "Update driver." 3. Check Power Settings: - Go to Device Manager and right-click on USB Root Hubs, select Properties. - Go to the Power Management tab and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power." - Repeat this for all USB Root Hubs. 4. BIOS Settings: - Check if there are any USB-related settings in the BIOS that might be causing this behavior. - Look for options related to USB power during boot. 5. Windows Update: - Make sure your Windows OS is up to date. Sometimes, Windows updates include fixes for hardware compatibility issues. 6. Hardware Test: - Test your USB devices on another computer to rule out any issues with the devices themselves. 7. USB Selective Suspend: - Disable USB Selective Suspend settings: - Go to Control Panel > Power Options. - Click on Change plan settings > Change advanced power settings. - Expand USB settings > USB selective suspend setting, set both On battery and Plugged in to Disabled. After trying these steps, restart your computer and check if the issue persists. If none of these solutions work, consider contacting the manufacturer's support or a professional technician for further assistance.
