Hiya,

I have the following problems on my Asus K53S
OS - Win 7 64 Bit

-Slow Bootup (Almost 3 minutes from hitting the power button until the desktop, has a password)
I run Ccleaner every time I switch it on, use Defraggler, Desktop is half occupied and HDD is 80% empty (Store things on my External), I remove all USB's when booting

-Weird USB 3.0 Problem, every time I boot up I have to remove and reinstall the USB 3.0 Drivers, when I plug a mouse it lights up but doesn't move. For an Ipad, nothing happens.

-Asus Live update utility doesn't want to start up once am connected to the internet, when I hover my mouse on the utility tray, the icon of Live Update just disappears, when tried clicking from Start nothing happens.

I use Bitdefender and Malwarebytes Anti Malware Software.

I really don't wish to format it as I design websites and formatting would mean clients waiting for me to complete the setup.

All windows updates have been installed on the machine.

I have the same laptop, but with windows 7 MSDN edition.
Everything works fine.
It's probably OS issue.

It's weird
Try using Glary Utilities | Glarysoft
clean and defragment registry
See the startup objects disable/delay them accordingly

/MOD: @montsa007 - You must not mention again & again or better ever (in your case) that which version of OS you're using
