How about this for Boot up Speed?

savoxp · Mar 5, 2014

Should the Asus Motherboard boot up to windows 7 login screen take about 35seconds?

After hitting power/start button on case my monitor screen stays dark for a couple seconds then Asus logo (click delete for bios etc...) shows up for a second, then goes away, the screen is black with a dos symbol at top left, then black, then asus logo for a second time, then starts loading windows.

Just wondering if that is normal cause I have only had gigabyte boards before this.

The PC's Info
i7 4960x
Noctua NH-D14s with additional 140mm
p9x79 e ws motherboard
corsair 64bg
gtx 780ti
ax1200i

first if you have any external storage devices pls disconnect and restart system and see how long it takes and what are your internal storage devices?

Do you have an SSD or HDD for your OS?

just have a single intel ssd and a sata coming from the blu/dvd drive. I tried running on minimum mode 1 stick of ram no drives and 1 video card. It would boot up to asus logo then black with dos, then asus and then a popup menu would show up saying incorrect configuration go into bios or something the jist of that. So i tried all 8 of the ram to check and see if they all worked cause it wouldn't boot up at all without the ram plugged in.

Now am currently finished installing all discs (motherboard/video card) onto windows 7

What it does is press power fans turn on and montier sits at black screen 11 seconds then asus logo pops up then black screen with dos writing symbol at top left for a second, then black then 19 second asus logo, then blackscreen with dos symbol for a second then loading windows about 25 seconds in total now

Is this a clean install of Windows?

Bad_Kitty13 · Mar 5, 2014

try to reseat your 24pin mobo connector and your 4/8 pin cpu connector

Check in your mobo if PCI-E is set as primary display, usually that long delay when starting is due to the BIOS/UEFI searching for the primary display.

Then again, it's not the first ASUS mobo that I see that takes it's time when booting...

when was the last time you did update your motherboard BIOS version?
Have you tried clearing CMOS?

clean windows on a formatted intel ssd

Bad_Kitty13 :

are you talking about power supply?

Bad_Kitty13 · Mar 5, 2014

im talking about the 2 cables that run from your power supply and connect to your mobo it is a 24 pin on the side of mobo and another buy your cpu socket try to unplug and plug back in until you feel click

Bad_Kitty13 :

I'll double check them

What do you think of the odd marvell disable or enable fixing the boot time?

savoxp :

i would just keep trying to troubleshoot until your problem is resolved anything we tell you will not hurt your pc and is what each person thought was a fix for you

I think I'm going to disable marvell controller to enable faster boot and go with intel raid controller thanks for all the help!
