    I uninstalled all of my nvidia drivers, rebooted and then ran driver cleaner. Reinstalled latest nvidia drivers.

    I did this thinking some drivers were causing a noticeable delay in my windows bootup.

    God did I screw up. I now get a 25-second hang as soon as windows starts loading, and according to safemode, the hang begins when windows tries to load SPTD.sys

    What could've went wrong here? The only thing I didn't reinstall was nTune, but that shouldn't be doing this...

    Do you have something called Daemon tools installed?

    I uninstalled that long ago, way before this hang started.

    Deleted it, still have the hang...hrm

    I have BootVis, and I've tried using it (Using Next Boot + Driver Trace), but the next startup of Bootvis never shows anything with the drivers.

    I don't know what's doing this...
