Hi David, I get how annoying that can be when your PC takes ages to boot. A slow startup usually points to either too many programs loading at boot, a failing hard drive, or outdated hardware like an old HDD instead of an SSD. Before jumping to a new PC, try a few quick checks: open Task Manager and disable unnecessary startup apps, run a disk health check, and make sure Windows and drivers are up to date. If you’re still seeing delays, can you share your current specs, processor, RAM, and whether you’re using HDD or SSD? That’ll help me suggest whether an upgrade like adding an SSD or more RAM could fix it, or if a new PC is the better route.
Facing extreme lag issues in my PC.

My PC takes almost 4-5 minutes to start. Feeling extremely frustrated. Now I am planning to upgrade it. Can anyone please suggest to me the best PC in the budget range?
