[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 888194, member: 37647"] 1 Do you have a Microsoft account? Your poor startup times might possibly be caused by settings that are synced to and from your user account, so they plague you and follow you around even after a system image restore. You could test it by making a new user account, it should be a local account, and see how it performs. 2 I am a big fan of cloning. I have cloned my desktop to my wife's laptop, my wife's old laptop to her new laptop, my old desktop to my new desktop, without bricking the computer or any noticeable degradation in performance. Yes, drivers do need to be installed manually sometimes, but that is doable. Maybe I am lucky or something, but I like cloning! If needed, I run the Macrium Reflect boot repair tool from a flash drive, in order to teach BIOS how to find Windows. [/QUOTE]
