Hello,
I have a fresh install in Windows 7 on my server and at the windows logo boot screen it sits pulsing for about 18 minutes.

I have 2 X 4 core CPU, 32GB RAM and 12 X 1TB hard drives linked with a LSI 3ware card.

The system is for SMB sharing only (at the moment)so I don't have a lot running on it.

Should I be worried or is this normal for a server?

Thanks
Chris
