Blade 16 (2024) extremely slow startup windows

I just purchased Blade 16 2024 with GeForce RTX4070 and every time I boot the system up, it takes a very long time to start up and get the laptop running to a normal state. During the Start up process, everything lags really bad from my mouse cursor to typing the keys for password. it takes 2-3 minutes starting up.

I had an 2016 razer blade and my old model despite being almost a decade years old boots up faster than my current fresh out the box 2024 razerblade laptop.

Is anyone experiencing the same thing? Please help me find this solution!

    I am having a very similar issue with a Razer Blade 15 2024. Mouse cursor slows down and stutters, keyboard inputs can take several seconds to appear on screen, apps have significant lag, all for several minutes (up to 5-10) after startup. This is not systematic and happens randomly (perhaps 10% of the time). 

    Strangely, all the issues disappear when I open the Task Manager - the program, mouse, and keyboard inputs run smoothly. The severe lag returns when I exit the task manager or tab out.

     

    Device specifications:

    CPU: Intel i9-12900 12th Gen.

    GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti

      I'm dealing with the exact same thing on a Razer Blade 15 (2022), i7-12800H, 16GB RAM, RTX 3070 Ti. Same pattern — cursor stutters, keyboard input lags several seconds, apps freeze up, and it's  happens randomly, not on every boot.

      Have you found anything that actually fixed it long-term, or is it still happening?
