Gummiboot freezes for a few seconds

I've installed Arch on my laptop and I'm currently dual booting with Windows 8.1. Everything works fine, but for a minor glitch: when booting up the latptop, Gummiboot "freezes" - I can't move the OS selector up and down for a bout 4~5 seconds before allowing me to choose which OS to boot. Has anyone encountered similar issues with Arch/Windows dual booting and Gummiboot?

Mored detail about your setup would be helpful: firmware, LUKS, LVM, anything in the journal?

Not an Installation issue, moving to Kernel and Hardware...

Re: Gummiboot freezes for a few seconds

I've got Windows installed on a 250GB SSD and Arch on a partition of a 1TB HDD. Using UEFI boot, /boot partition is on the HDD, and I'm using ext4 file system on the Arch install. Not really sure what additional information could be necessary....

Yes and we never did fix it...
