Recently I built a media center for my in-laws that they have connected to their 60" Sony DLP 1080i TV. It has Windows 7 on a 64GB SSD and when building it used my own 42" LG 1080p TV - the system seriously boot up in about 10-12 seconds, I also tested it connected to a crappy little 15" computer monitor...same boot time. After connecting to their TV the computer takes upwards of 3-5 minutes to boot into Windows....

Does that make sense?

I thought it was weird so I brought it back home with me and put it back on my TV and it boot up extremely fast again.

Would a TV or HDMI cable be the cause of an extremely slow bootup time? To me that doesn't seem like a logical issue...but that is the only thing that's changed.
