Just a random guess - in the BIOS what is the "Init Display first" set to?

Auto, PEG, PCI? Try setting to PEG?

dont think it matters what you set it to does it, pretty sure it doesnt save when you exit the bios on this board.

Why are u making this short video ? All it do is to boot up Windows 8. What it got to do with F15m bios ?

 

[Kirma]

It's much faster than F14 bios..
You can see the loading screen for 2-3 second only !

on the old bios it's take at least 6-7 sec

 

[Balb0wa]

im using f15m with a crucial m4 , takes ages to boot, how do you make it fast?

i thought windows 8 was meant to be quick at booting

You can disabled logo at the bios F15m and it less than 2 secs to boot

i've got this board & its running on the f10 bios with a 3570k at stock, in general its been ok, its a bit sluggish loading & i was wondering if i should load the new bios, also if i load the new bios updates, do i need to load each update or do i just move to F15 ?

 

[covenantuk]

You only need the most recent BIOS, and only if you need it.

If you feel confident just download the latest supported BIOS from Gigabyte (F14) and install that

 

[bulldog147]

F15m is bug on overclocking setting ( from 35x to 48x and save F10 and reboot and still on 3.5GHz and couldn't get 4.8GHz as I try reset bios and still the same. ) revert bios to F14 and overclocking setting now working ok.

 

[covenantuk]

Yup, there were lots of bugs with ram and cpu speed settings not taking on the F15 series. I went back to F14

 

[Darrensen]

Can anyone tell me where in the BIOS ACHI is? Thanks

 

[wazza300]

its enabled by default,not sure which page but its in there somewhere if you look in the mb manual it should tell you

 

[Darrensen]

Thanks wazza

New beta BIOS F15o is available: http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/BIOS/mb_bios_ga-z77x-ud5h_f15o.exe

- Improve LAN compatibility

 

[bulldog147]

I hope there isn't any bugs with ram and cpu speed settings not taking on the F15o as the last bios F15m was awful lots of bugs with ram and cpu speed settings.

my Gigabyte Z77X-UP5 shipped today think i might have made a mistake tbh i loved asus software seems you get sod all with gigabyte

I heard the fan control is crap on this board?

that shouldn't be a problem tho as most fans come with a switch to slow them and speed them up? Its also going into a corsair 500r case
that comes with 3 fans that will connect to the psu right the fans on that case
And it has a fan controller on it


You can connect another 4 fans to this board right?

 

[bulldog147]

There is lots of problem with USB 3.0 not recognizing device and it very annoyed as I had to turn off the main power to get it working again. It no issues on USB 2.0 but always not recognizing device on USB 3.0 on gigabyte z77x ud5h f14

 

[Vimes]

^^^^ that happens quite a lot for me, it also happens on my other system, which has a Z77 D3H board in it.
With this board it tends to be more of an issue with the front USB 3 headers than the rear. Sometimes those ports don't seem to wake from a S3 sleep and thus the system needs a full reboot to get them working as they should.

bios revisions have made no difference for either board. Disabling and re-enabling the USB controller in the device manager makes no difference, it is a full reboot which is needed.
