Gave this some additional thought last night. See my post from the 26th. Next things to look at.
Fast boot / Ultra Fast Boot. Are you using these settings in BIOS or in conjunction with the App Center Utility in the OS?
I believe these settings are disabled when Defaults are loaded which could change the behavior of cold boot.
My recommendation is you don't need either of these if you are running a m.2 or SSD.
I appreciate you believe your intention is trying to help, but going back over this thread, your posts are in the guise of someone who is authoritative, but your posts might be seen by some as deflective or providing incorrect advise. Do you work for Gigabyte ?
It would be more helpful if you could put pressure on this company to rectify a serious defect that is causing people to return their motherboards on the grounds they dont meet the advertised functional standards. Such advertised functional standards induced people to spend money on these boards and build systems around them. This takes time and money.
It is good however that progress on the now accepted issue is apparently being made, albeit that is only evidenced by one person who has a bios that no one else has access to..
Laughable that you are holding me to any level of accountability for this issue by asking questions/making suggestions in the 5th post of a 7 page thread with 95 responses. At that point, there was only very limited information from
one user (Phroster) with one other person (oo0filthy0oo) who chimed in with a similar but unconfirmed behavior. Like me, he suggested BIOS settings. I don't work for Gigabyte. Just a user, who enjoys the brand. My time and advise is voluntary and provided freely. I am not in a position to put ANY pressure on Gigabyte. I don't stand to gain anything. I wasn't deflecting. With only one confirmed report and limited information, my advise was based on behavior I'd seen previously as possible reasons why a system might behave in this manner. Configuration, hardware selection and BIOS settings which at the time were being reported by only
one person. Over time, we learned the problem was widespread and affected multiple platforms. We're all here to help one another. I don't have all the answers. Like everyone else here, I'm glad the problem is now seemingly going to be addressed.
