Solution
Issues with startup like that, especially when it slowly boots, is often a failing hard drive. Try another drive and install Windows on that clean.

Buy a new hard drive (SSD is best), use your Windows media to install the OS. If you can still boot your system you should see an option to make a set of backup or recovery disks. If you have Windows 8 or 10 you can download the setup from Microsoft.
