Asus P4B533 owners, please help with BIOS problem!

[Jimmy3929]

Everytime I start the PC, it comes up with the P4B533 logo page, then
the message press F1 to continue, then it will go to the press DEL to enter
setup, and boot into Windows 2000. If I don't press F1, it just sits there.
Anyone know how to get rid of this. I searched the manual but could not find anything.
Thank you in advance.

hmm. Have you tried turning off the logo screen? Or did you want it there? I haven't used the logo screen before..

It's probably finding an error & asking you to press F1 to continue.

Go in your bios & set HALT on ERRORS to none.

Jimmy, don't do this except as a temporary work-around.

I read somewhere that someone else had the same problem and he (or she) e-mailed tech support to get it solved.
It is good to leave "HALT on ERRORS" enabled in the BIOS, if you can (IMHO).

Hopefully, it is as simple as turning off the splash screen in the BIOS.
Budman, just expanding on what you said.

Next time, hit the del key to get into the bios, and check the hardware monitor for any red readings. Then, save and exit.
