Issues

Hey,
I have been having huge problems with my computer recently which we seem to think it was a bad motherboard so we got a new one (same model) and tried that. I can now boot up to windows but the computer seems to take forever at the post screens and the motherboard brand screen. It just seems to sit there for a long time before continuing to boot up. I am using an Asus P5W DH Deluxe motherboard with BIOS version 1901.

Can anyone help me with this issue?

Thankyou

Regards,
Neil

Go into the bios and turn off the boot loogo, then you can see whats going on behind the scenes

If I turn the boot logo off then it just stays showing the POST screen for ages.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Extremely slow POST - Disable everything to do with fans in "Hardware Monitor".

Hey,

Thanks for that. I ahve actually already seen that and I have disabled everything to do with fans in the Hardware Monitor part of the bios and it has not really helped at all tbh.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

check your hdd... common fault and will hold post screen whilst looking for it.. a broken pin or a cracked cable maybe
