                  still boots realy slow.. 15 Minute of boot (from a known good bootstick) and still 80%... not load the complete installer.. whats wrong?

                  Linux runs perfect on it ....

                    Boot into Windows and check if Intel Management Engine Interface device works properly in device manager.
