Alienware 17 (2014) Slow Boot up?
It just started few days ago. Never had any boot problem before. When I power it on, it takes 3x longer to boot up than before but when I restart the system it boots up quick. I have got Windows 8.1 on it. I do not have the Kionix Free Fall Sensor installed. I have updated the BIOS but nothing has changed. Any idea please? I can upload a video on Youtube if you guys like.
Thank you for your time.

Hi,
Try running an ePSA/Diagnostic test on the system, click here to view a Dell article that explains how to run this test. Let me know if you receive any errors.

Hi Alienware-Eimy,
Thank you for your reply.
I've done the test and at the end it said "All tests passed". I have no idea what could be wrong with it.

The system itself is fast, only when the Windows when booting up is slow. You can see in the video it looks like it restarts itself first shows the Alienware logo after blank screen and Alienware logo again.
