Solve : Very long boot sequence?

Answer»

Hello.

I have just recently bought and BUILT a new computer. Now, my only problem is that it has a long boot list. Is there a way to minimize it? I Don't really, mind, but whatever. It is a gigabyte motherboard. If that helps. As I SAID, I don't mind too much, but I would like a faster boot.Quote from: paudashlake on December 06, 2008, 08:07:22 AM

... it has a long boot list.
What does that mean? Please clarify.Meaning, when I turn it on, It goes to the black screen with all the bios and settings and junk on it, and that takes a good chunk of time.Quote from: paudashlake on December 06, 2008, 08:19:29 AM

The trouble is, what you call "a good chunk of time" might be what somebody else calls a "fleeting instant". So some actual times would be nice So how long does the boot screen stay on screen? Ten seconds? Five minutes?Not TOO long, but long enough to be a little irratating. About 30-40 secondshmm, have you enabled any "quick boot" option in the CMOS setup? My computer takes forever to do the full POST (almost a full minute, my RAM is maxed out), but less then a second with quick boot enabled.Agreed, sometimes called "quick memory check".
Okay. I completely forgot about that! YOUSEE, my old compaq laptop never had any of these screens, ao it has BEN a while since I 've used one.
