New to ESP8266 and micropython

Hello guys and girls. I'm pretty new to programming ESP8266 boards, and micropython.
I've been struggling to get my board to boot up.

Whenever I try to boot it up, I get loads of these stuff looping.

Sometimes it boots straight away, and is ready to use. Sometimes I get a few loops of this stuff, then it's ready to use.
Sometimes it just loops and loops, and I gave to reset my board to try again.

Anyone know what I should do? Tried googling my way, but can't find any clues.

That looks like an unstable power supply. Get a better cable and/or try another USB port.
