Hey all, sorry if this is in the wrong place, first time posting. After powering on my computer, it takes a while until my display will turn on, I need to wait until I hear the beep, but the beep takes about 10-15 seconds to occur. What could be causing this issue?

hmmm ...
you can try disabling anything you don't use in the BIOS and see if that helps.It's also possible that your CMOS battery is dying and that's making it take longer to POST.
after that i'm all out of ideas.

I only have the usb and mouse connected. And no, it does not have a fast post option.

It won't allow me to, it requires that I put the "bootable add in card" first, whatever that is. Then i have ssd and my two hdd following that.
