    Alright then, back when I had my good Compaq (recently replaced mobo and case) It used to boot up very easily and fast because of some factory setting.

    Now, when I have this new mobo, it always runs a memory test at the start, shows a boot screen, and THEN runs windows, I just wanted to know how to disable that so it boots up faster.. It is a very painful 30 seconds..


    Thanks in advance.

    In the BIOS, enable quick boot. It will then bypass many of the checks.

    I believe I have, but the memory test is still annoying since it counts in KBs and I have 1.5 gb..

    Pressing <Escape> should abort the test.
