It took 15minuets to boot Archicad18 on my new bought Dell M3800, the workstation notebook(i7+Ram 16G+NVidia Quadro K1100M). OS is Windows 8.1.

WIBU key or Codemeter license?
Local or network key?

I sometimes find my machine gets a bit busy doing all sorts of background updates which can delay programs starting - but not 15 minutes.

Have you tried re-starting your machine and the opening Archicad again?
Your machine just may need to settle in.

There are no problems with WIBU key or Codemeter license.
I tried again and again, but the problem seemed still......I installed and boot AC18 successfullyon my PC(i7+12G+win7).so I wonder if AC18 can be run properly on M3800 and Win8.1?

Just an idea:

Try to start your system in Safe Mode and see if ArchiCAD starts faster. If yes, then there might be some system or other process that is interfering with ArchiCAD.
