Hello,
Thank you for the update on the issue.
This might be the problem of a startup program.
I would suggest you to boot the computer in a clean boot state and check if the issue persists. If you don’t face the issue in clean boot state, then one of the program disabled is causing the issue. Refer to the article for more information:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: After troubleshooting, reset the computer to start as usual. Refer to the step How to set the computer to start as usual after clean boot troubleshooting under more information.
Hope this information is helpful. Please write back to us if you need any further assistance, we'll be glad to assist you.
