My computer with a TYAN Trinity S2099 motherboard, 1.8 GHz Celeron, & 256MB DDRRAM, which takes a whopping 85 seconds to boot to Windows XP. 33 seconds of that time is spent scanning for a raid that I don't have. I sits there "Scanning IDE Drives............". Only one IDE drive exists (Maxtor 40GB). It is so slow. I installed the latest bios (1.07) and it's still a turtle machine.
It takes my other computer 35 seconds to boot to windows XP with an ASUS A7A266 motherboard, 1.3GHz Celeron, & 128MB SDRAM. Even minus the 33 second raid check on my first machine, boot time would be 52 seconds -> 17 seconds slower than the ASUS. Hence you can see my wonderment about TYAN's 'HIGH' performance boards.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this or should I go and buy another board. Thank-you.
