Hi

My problem is that half of my booting time is the aforementioned pause, in which the monitor says "no signal detected".

I use Windows 7, my computer is a year old, with G3258, R9 270, 8GB RAM 1600MHZ, 2 TB HDD. I recently bought a Samsung 850 EVO and cloned my 100GB system partition on it. I don't really know which software it is using from the HDD and the SSD, but when I will have the time I will do a full Windows reinstall.

My guess is some configuration problem ( VGA driver, BIOS, Windows... ) but any opinions are welcome. Please spare me the "reinstall windows" talk, I think it is solveable without that.

Thanks!

Hi. Check to see if your graphics card is seated properly. Then check the refresh rate of your monitor and resolution(try a lower resolution),update your graphic drivers
