I have several unique issues with my bootup. It takes 5 minutes (ive timed it) Something is wrong somewhere in all those transistors so that each time I reboot I have to reprogram in my hd settings which takes about 1 minute with autoset. BIOS saves all its other settings except that one so go figure. SB Live is the other culprit. It automatically loads a dos emulator which I never ever need or use. I can disable it, and it will be fine for 1 reboot which then only takes 20 seconds, but somehow it programs itself back into startup memory like one of those evil birthday candles that light back up every time you blow them out.
I dread lockups and I punch walls when the power goes off for a split second.
