During cold start I enter the passphrase for my secured home folder, but it repeatedly prompts me to re-enter it each time. The caps lock doesn’t appear to help. Whether I type it or not, it still rejects the password initially. Also, after entering the correct login password, the screen freezes for about 90 seconds before returning to the login page, and this cycle keeps repeating. Every time I need to restart my computer via the shutdown menu. On the second boot, the passwords work smoothly and I’m logged in correctly. What’s going on? How can I resolve this?

It looks like the file might be damaged or there could have been a recent update to your graphics hardware.

The 90-second delay measures the processor speed in the machine.

It's strange to reinstall the old RAM, but the system seems to function. That suggests the RAM might be faulty or not compatible with your setup.

It's not specified which distribution, so I can't determine it directly. For the filesystems, /home typically uses ext4 or similar, while / often contains root filesystem like ext4 or NTFS depending on the OS. You can check with commands like `lsblk` or `df -h`.
