hi, i bought 3 motherboard from 3 different places. it was all brand new 2 x GA-H61M-DS2 r2.2 and one GA-H61M-S2-B3 r1.0
but all of them POSTING BOOT LOGO for 1-3 MINUTES??? what's wrong with this motherboards?
i tired to BIOS to LEGACY and disabled some units but nothing changed still 1-3 minutes takes for BOOT LOGO
then i updated BIOS to latest, no luck, nothing changed
my other parts is Intel i3-2100, Corsair 2GB, Seagate 500GB and don't have any other devices
i didn't used gigabyte motherboards before, i mostly used asus motherboards
so this is normal for GIGABYTE Motherboads?
or my motherboards have a problem (defected unit)?
please advice me
thanks

Advanced BIOS Features
You have to go into that option to change it to quick boot option. It is set as disable by default.

but there is don't have any Advanced BIOS Features and Quick Boot option in GIGABYTE H61 motherboards
i saw that option in GIGABYTE Z77

That is why I said disable the logo screen to see what it is doing. It is looking for something.
When it boots it looks for the Cpu, Memory, Video & than it checks the memory size & than for the Drives
The GA-H61M-S2-B3 does have that feature
Quick Boot
Enables or disables the quick boot function to speed up the system boot-up process to shorten the waiting time for entering the operating system and to deliver greater efficiency for daily use. The settings here synchronize with the settings of the SMART QuickBoot of Smart 6™ . (Default: Disabled)
GA-H61M-DS2 r2.2
