DP35DP slow Bios Boot

[idata]

I've DP35DP Media Series, Phisical Memory 2048MB, Porcessor Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66 2cores.

the problem is that the Bios booting time takes 2-3 min. to show the Intel Logo or to let me enter to the Bios !!

after updated the Bios to the latest(update 15/07/2009) it worked well for few days then back to be very slow again.

any suggetions?

I got 2 x dp35dp which both are very slow booting once in a while. I have to turn tho power completely off for some minutes and wait until I turn it on again.

Hello RigPa,

Bear in mind that the motherboard you have is quite old, which may have a performance loss because of the lifetime, however you can try doing a clear CMOS, which will clean up the data that is stored on the BIOS chip (embedded on the motherboard). Follow the steps below to do the clear CMOS process:

• Shut the system down.
• Disconnect the AC power.
• Remove the CMOS Battery from the CMOS.
• Wait for 15-30 minutes without the battery on the motherboard
• Refit the battery.
• Reconnect the AC power

Hopefully the recommended step will resolve your issue.

If you have more questions please let me know.

Warm regards,
