Windows 7 (org. system) was running fast and good.
Upgraded to 10 and after a few reboots it was installed and working.
every time I boot from cold the blue windows logo appears and the machine goes into black/gray screen.
It stays this way for at least 1 minute and then the login screen appears. All drivers are updated/installed.
I tried to make a clean install of windows 10 x64 and it installed well and restarted.
This time it was much faster (a few seconds) And I went into device manager.
I could see that Windows installed drivers for the different devices as the unknown devices dissapeared one by one.
Some time after (with 1 remaining unknown device not related to the problem) it will restart.
Now I'm back to the black/gray screen again every time I restart.
I hope the description of this issue is understandable
