2 Booting problems: Progress bar at the screen when booting, sound fails
Hi everyone, i'm having some troubles with my almost new iMac, and the problem is that i don't know if that is normal or not.
This is the thing:
When i start the computer, sometimes a progress bar is shown at the bottom of the screen, when this happens, te computer takes a very long time to start, and once it's done, some things don't work (sound, camera, mic).
If i restart the computer, usually everything turns to normal again, but i feel confused about all this, knowing i own an expensive computer and having to deal with this.
What do you think, is this normal stuff? have you ever heard of something like this?
I had an iMac 20 for a few years and never had a problem like this, in fact boot times where shorter.
Thanks you all in advance, and please excuse my english, i'm not an english speaking person.
Is this a good question?

Try disconnecting the USB devices (other than the keyboard & mouse) any difference? If so you may have a bad cable or device.

Dan, i've been trying what you told me for a few days, and everything seems to be fine. I guess the problem was in my wacom tablet, that was always plugged. Thanx a lot for helping me!
