Hello!

I own an ASUS P8P67 Deluxe and it seems to take about 8-10 seconds before I see any sign of video (monitor receiving a signal) or activity when I boot. After this delay the BIOS takes a couple of seconds to POST and then my computer boots normally. I've attempted to Google the issue but haven't found anything concrete. Is this normal? I wouldn't have guessed a UEFI motherboard would have a longer boot time than the last board I owned with a legacy BIOS.

Things I've tried so far:

  • Disabling all onboard devices, the splash screen, USB 3.0 support etc.
  • Removing all but one stick of RAM, disconnecting all of my drives + my keyboard and mouse.
  • Updating the BIOS, clearing the CMOS, restoring default settings.

My system:

ASUS P8P67 Deluxe (3rd Gen)

Corsair TX650 Power Supply

Intel i5-2500K 3.3GHz

4x2GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3-1600MHz

GeForce GTX 680 2GB

Crucial M4 128GB SSD

I'm just about out of ideas and I'm hoping someone here owns the same board so we can compare times.

Thanks in advance!

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates.
