[Win7] VirtualBox Drivers cause win7 startup slow

Post by Richard Parker »

Hi there,

I was wondering why it takes me 90 sec. to start my win7 after pressing power bottom.

Recently I found that if I just disable the "VirtualBox Support Driver", "VirtualBox NDIS 6.0 Host-Only Network Adapter Driver", "VirtualBox USB Monitor Driver", "VirtualBox USB Monitor Driver", it takes me only 5 sec. to start my PC. (with system installed in SSD: MX200 240G)

But I can't use VirtualBox after windows startup if I disabled them.

Could someone help me or tell me how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot!!

BRs,
Mark

Hi there,

I forgot post the screenshot of how I stop the 4 drivers, sorry about that!

If I disable them through software: Autoruns, there will be no startup slow problem, but I can't use VBox anymore... Orz

Try to pin down which one of these actually causes the problem. E.g. I would start with disabling the NDIS6 driver only.
