Hi,

I just got my new pc, i5-2500k cpu, and GTX 550 Ti SC vga, with this mobo:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157230&Tpk=asrock p67 pro3 b3

The problem is that the pc boots very slow. It takes 51sec till POST, and then around 7sec till windows password screen. I've tryed to google some, but didn't get good answers. Anyone knows what's up?

Clear the CMOS, disable the splash screen, and ensure that boot priority is set correctly.

Why would I have to clear the CMOS? I just bought the pc ...

Edit: #1 priority is now set at my HD instead of the DVD, and I've disabled the splash, still the same Is it normal that it boots so slow?

I have the exact same mobo and mine doesn't boot that slow.

If you don't need it, try disabling the 6gb SATA controller and or the usb 3.0. Very common cause of slow booting when those things are not on the chipset itself.

All the SATA ports on the Asrock P67 is provided by the Intel chipset. Disabling USB3 is worth a try.

You clear the CMOS in this scenario because it clears the DMI pool which may or may not solve your issue of slow booting...

Is your SATA set to AHCI?

Ok I've disabled the USB3.0, didn't work. Cleared the CMOS didn't work either Not sure if I have done it right though, I just went restore default settings, which is the way to do it right?

Yes that’s the right, but to be absolutely sure place the CMOS pin on clearing position

**NOTE** your clear CMOS is located directly near your bios battery.

-Turn off the PC
-Remove the power cable
-Then press the power on button to remove any charge left
-Place the CMOS pin to reset position OR remove the bios battery
-Leave it on for 5-15 secs OR leave the battery removed for 5-15 secs
-Press power on button
-Place the clear CMOS pin back to its original position OR put the bios battery back in
-Plug the power cable back in
-Turn on, then go into the bios and do a 'reset to default'

I had the same problem. Just disable USB Legacy Support, this will fix your problem. Cheers.

i had the same problems. the reason was my steelseries xai, which doesn't work well with the mainboard. i unplug my mouse everytime i boot the pc. an other option i've heard of is to plug the troublesome hardware in the usb 3.0 ports and disable (like skuila1g mentioned) the legacy support in your bios menu for them.
