I made a backup of my Windows 7. It includes a system image. Following this, the computer takes 4 minutes to reboot on every boot!
If I perform the very same backup without a system image, there is no impact on the boot time which is then around 30 seconds...
What happens?

Tired of all your troubleshooting guides... Again, I am not supposed to debug Microsoft issues. I have already spent ton of hours to find out what was going on. Now it is up to Microsoft to find a fix for this bug! Stop bothering me with your troubleshooting guides, this isn't serious...
When you buy a car and it is broken, the garagist doesn't expect you to fix the car by yourself!
Hi Olivier,
Kindly refer to the following:
How to diagnose Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 performance issues
Hope this helps.
There is no corruption. I have made several pass of the sfc scanner and it hasn't detected any corruption so why are you keeping on suggesting that there is a corruption? There is just a bug. Please investiage and patch it!
Hi Olivier,
Thank you for the update.
In-place upgrade is upgrade process that you choose at the time of installing. This means nothing but running Windows installation files that re-writes current ones and fixes those files which are corrupted. Your data and settings remain. However, it is good to backup your data just in case.
Hello,
There is no way I will perform this as there is a risk of data loss... You need to debug the issue on your side and come up with a patch. My PC isn't a test environment. I have performed enough tests so far.
