RAM Check on start-up

Hello,
I had to reset my BIOS for some reason but wrote down the configuration first. I then reconfigured the settings but unfortunately there is a annoying memory check when starting up the computer and I don’t know which setting has to be changed in order to avoid this long memory check (counting up the memories at start-up).

Motherboard :GA-8TX
--------------------------
M/B ver : REV:1.0
BIOS : AMI BIOS GA-8TX F6
Thank you in advance for your help

Norman :P

Hello Nicks

Thank you, But in Bios I do not find the "POST" to enable or disable. Is there a hidden menu point? The title in my BIOS say AMIBIOS Simple Viewer 1.0 or so.

Thanks

Norman

Quick boot to enabled if the other one is not there

Tried to press ESC during memory test ?

Hmm, that option is not shown in the downloadable 8TX manual. :?
No "Quick memory test" option either ?

Pressing "Escape" during test works but is a little annoying.

No "quick memeory test" option either

There is a Dual Bios. Has it got to do with that?

I don't think it's to do with "Dual BIOS". It seems Gigabyte have removed the option from the CMOS set-up menu in this BIOS. Have you upgraded your BIOS since you bought the machine ?

Yes I did, "GA-8TX F8" but then the Bios was corrupted and Dual wanted to load backup but unsuccessfully

I loaded the GA-8TX F6 one again.
