    Last Bios Time Increase to 30+ Seconds
    « on: November 03, 2021, 08:56:41 PM »
    Hi everyone,

    I have a weird case. I cannot remember how long my Bios time once were, but I am for sure it does not bother me. Now it is very slow, boost to 30+ seconds. The things I have done is:

    Changed to a pair of new RAM. Original RAM: XPG Gammix D30 2x8G 3200hz. New RAM: Corsair Vengence 2x8G 3600hz. Problem seems didn't start at this time yet. All using Dual Channel (2/4 slot of MOBO)

    Changed the RAM back to XPG, the old one. Problem starts to happen.

    Did 1-2 for 1 or 2 more times to test.

    Try single channel / just using one of two ram sticks, problem resolved.

    Change RAM back to single channel. Reset the bios, problem persist.

    Reinstall windows, problem persist. <---------- Now

    It is clear that problem goes with RAM but I cannot sure where exactly the problem goes. The motherboard always stop at loading RAM for a long time (the diagnose red light). I have two assumptions now:

    The dual channel on MOBO break.

    The RAM is faulty.

    Some Bios setting problem.

    Please help me. I really don't know where to start diagnosing.

    It always helps to have a little more detail of the computer.
    The quickest way to get this detail is with a program called speccy which you can get from here https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/download
    After running the program select file ; publish snapshot , then copy the url to the report here.
    Thanks
