Suddenly my PC started taking a long time to boot. I have windows 8.1 on an SSD so it's usually pretty fast, like 20 or 30s from pressing the button to desktop, most of it is the motherboard stuff. Now it gets to the desktop making good time, but it just hangs there, with most of the shortcuts without icons (as in white files), not opening the programs that are set to start with windows and it won't let me open the task manager. I can open other programs with no lag at all, like firefox or matlab. After a couple minutes it snaps out of it and the startup resumes, the taskmanager finally opens, the icons load and Avast and that stuff continue starting.
The event viewer had this error about team viewer service hangin at startup:
The TeamViewer 10 service hung on starting.
The whole log is in here: http://pastebin.com/Rrj0t44X
I tried disabling TeamViewer and the computer effectively starts up normally. I tried reinstalling TeamViewer and the problem persisted.
Does anyone have any idea as to what could be causing this and how to fix it?

Go to Computer Management\Services and change the TeamViewer service from Automatic to Automatic (Delayed Start).
