Hello,
First, let me say this has nothing to do with the ATA100 intialization.
I have had an Asus A7V and A7V133 now for about 2 years. I have been very happy with them both. I am not experiencing anything wrong, JUST WEIRD.
When I first boot up, my computer sits at the at mobo display screen (show ram, cpu speed etc) for about 1 minute or so!, then it does the RAM check, the promise driver set, load WinXP, ....
I know that the A7V133 has a longer than normal boot time because the ATA100 controller, but that is not the issue. My computer hangs for a minute BEFORE it even gets that far. It does it EVERY time.
Do you have any idea why this would START happening?
Important Specs:
Asus A7V133 Raid mobo (bios 1009 NOW, because thought that might fix it)
AMD XP 1900+ processor (not & never oc, not that I wouldn't mind doing it)
512MB SDRAM PC133 (3 sticks)
450Watt Enermax power supply
Windows XP
Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
Pictures are worth a thousand words, I hope:
