Tech News and Commentary
Dave and the team discuss AT&T’s new subscription service, Blackberry’s fate, foldable phones and the alternatives, Ring’s lack of effect on arrests, and more.
Pete in Madison, Mississippi listens on SuperTalk 97.3 and asked: “Hi Dave, my issue is that my laptop once I upgraded to windows 10 takes literally about 5 mins to boot up, any ideas? It was fine before the update”
Pete, it’s tough to know what could’ve been broken by the update without knowing what the update contained, but it would be good to check for driver updates.
You’re probably not the only one facing this issue and slow boot times are sometimes related to drivers not playing nice. Particularly graphics drivers have been known to cause this issue before.
Windows’ own Fast Start has been known to cause this in the past, so you may see your performance improve if you turn it off under your power and sleep settings.
