Booting Delay Help

Scott33 · 18 Mar 2020 at 12:19

Hey guys,

Got a new PC.
The PC is great but the booting I find is a little strange.

Its been sent back tested, but the same problem persist.
At least i think its a problem.

The PC booted up in around 20 odd seconds at first. Now its taking over double the time.
It starts up makes a noise then stops and all the fans stop then it kicks in again and boots up.
Whereas before there was no starting and stopping.

I could attach a video/pictures if possible?

Appreciate any feedback

Cheers, Scott.

Hi Scott, the starting and stopping so it might be failing the boot.
If any overclocks on system set to stock and test.
I would also remove all unnecessary devices, so boot drive graphics card and 1 stick of Ram.
Could be a loose defective cable.
please provide full system specs so we can help you better.

Hey, Thanks for your reply..

My Specs are :

XFX Radeon RX 580 GTS XXX 8gb

Asus Rog Strix B450-F Gaming AMD motherboard

Corsair 650W modular 80+ gold psu

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 - 3.6ghz 6 core.

Adata XPG Gammix D10 2X8GB.

No overclocks im aware of.

So shall I try unplugging graphics card and testing with 1 stick ram?

Cheers

Resolved by a motherboard BIOS update.

Also corrected my ram settings in bios.
