Loading Screen stalls for 20 or so minutes with no indication of progress.

On one machine it will take 20+ minutes to get past the loading screen after a major patch. When this first happened I would never let it finish, as it seemed stuck. It would be nice is some type of progress indicater was added so people would not give up on it when it gets stuck like this. On another machine is only takes a minute or two.

On the machine that it takes over 20 minutes it also misidentifies the graphics chip that it is running on. It shows the graphics as an Intel HD 4600, when it is actually running on an 8970, and the intel is just working as a pass through. The other machine just has one graphics chip in it, and it properly identifies it as a 6870 and takes only minutes.

Again, it would be nice to have a loading progress indicator. It would be even nicer if it could be speed up. Perhaps if the code dug a bit deeper and reconized the proper graphic chip it would help with that?
