GA-M57SLI-S4 IDE look up takes forever!
« on: August 11, 2009, 10:44:45 am »
i have a GA-M57SLI-S4 and IDE look up on boot takes about a minute. i have 3 IDEs (2 sata disks & 1 dvd burner).
is there a way to disable IDE lookup? i had a asus mainboard that had a "quick boot" feature which skipped this whole ide lookup and bios startup screen.

Hi,

What is your bios version?
What happens when you connect only 1 SATA HDD, no other devices?

It should take less than 15 sec to detect HDD and ODD.
ZX-S & C64 are still my favourites ;-)

Hi,
Also try Unpluging all usb attatchments, as the  bios scans for usb  boot devices on startup,
