EP45-UD3P Power up question

[ak2000]

Hello everyone, new member here, but not new to Gigabyte Mobos. I have three different PCs with GB boards, but I have a question on one:
When I press the power button on my PC, I get 4 "starts" then POST just fine. It appears that the power on trys 4 times then catches. Hard to explain, but this is something I am not used to. PC boots up and runs just fine, just the strange power up has me concerned. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi,
Have you the latest bios
Try unplugging all your usb devices
Have you got your Boot drive set in bios
Cheers

I have the latest BIOS, FC. Flashed it before I posted this. Didn't change the strange startup behavior.
Boot drive is set as the First Boot drive in BIOS.
I was thinking that it might be the usb devices. I had a MSI Mobo that would beep X amount of times before starting up indicating the USB devices plugged in.

Have you tried running with bare minimum - no optical drives, front usb etc. Just CPU, 1 stick RAM and graphics card of some description. Obviously all power connections aswell. Then see if it will post straight away. You may also want to consider running a memtest http://memtest.org/#downiso download and mount the ISO using nero or similar program. Then set your boot device priority to boot from cd. Sometimes dodgey memory can cause this.
