Hello everyone!

In this afternoon, I updated my PC Mate B350 BIOS to the newest version (7A34vAC). After the update, it gave me a message that I need to move ram cards to 2-4 channel instead of 1-2 channel (manual recommanded 1-2..)

After boot it took unusually long to boot. Normally, it would like half a minute but after the update, it took 4-5 mins.

Does anyone experience the same problem?

Boot goes like this:

Turn on pc, black screen for 1-2 minutes, BIOS LOGO 1-2 minutes, black screen 1-2 minutes, Windows OS logo loading 1-2 minutes, login screen.

I have tried to clear the CMOS by pulling out the battery and use a screw driver to connect the 'two CMOS pins'...
