Strange boot issue

[anirudhramnath]

Hi, I have 10.9.4 on my laptop.

Sometimes while booting I am stuck in the apple logo screen. I do not get the spinning wheel.

If I turn it off and turn it on again, it boots into my Mavericks installation. Any idea why I am getting this issue?

Thanks

Is that after restarting after running Windows 8? If so, known issue. Solution: shutdown Win8 instead of restart, and make sure Windows 8 "fast startup" is disabled.

Yes RehabMan, absolutely correct.
