Hi All,
 
I was hoping for some guidance here..
 
[Hardware Info]
Classified K on 1.02 BIOS 
Intel Core i7-6700K 
M2 Samsung 950 Pro 256GB
Corsair Dominator Platinum 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 Memory
EVGA 980TI Hybrid
 
No overclocking running everything on default..
 
Every morning booting up the machine will be stuck on the Classified K splash screen (90% of the time).. Just sits there.. Until I hit the restart front button and then it boots fine straight into Windows 10
 
1) Any ideas what it might be?  Or where I should even start looking? 
2) Is there any way to turn off BIOS splash so i can see what the machine is doing on boot..
 
Thanks in advance..

I would install OS on SATA III SSD and look few days what happen, without M.2.
You need to look inside BIOS careful maybe you can disable Logo somewhere but I afraid if problem
show up you will look on black screen that's even worse.
 
You can test and memory, best in some other PC or over night on error.
And pay attention on some Postal code if show up, maybe he show in some direction.
Many people confirm that boot time on X99 and Z170 is slower than on Z77/Z87/Z97.

This is just a shot in the dark, but try disabling fast boot in the bios and see if that helps.

You had that problem from first day, and you immediately use M.2 driver as boot device?
If you have other BIOS maybe is good if you try to boot few days with switch in second position without any BIOS update.
Only fabric default BIOS and default settings for memory and CPU.
 
I think that Intel should leave more space for Z170 and X99 chipset and launch them 10 months later.
That would give them more space for Broadwell and motherboard companies could spend more time on testing X99 and Z170 because innovations. Without AMD on market Intel had really lot of space to do that.
I have impression that somehow they enter in something new little earlier without more testing and checking what could be wrong maybe.
I mean on all motherboard companies and with Intel as main factor.

Let it sit Longer, my R4 takes 3 or 4 minutes to boot with Windows 10.
When Windows 7 was installed the OS only took 9 seconds to boot.

I am going to investigate this more this week. I was too busy playing The Division! LOL there one things I can say.. It has NEVER failed to boot after the reset..

Yes that is correct. I am already at the second position as I didn't like the first position of the M.2 sitting under my GPU didn't make sense..

When Windows 7 was installed the OS only took 9 seconds to boot.

I've had it sit there for over 10-15mins as I turn on my PC most mornings and then go to make breakfast and coffee..  Also after I hit reset it only takes 4-5s to boot.. :)

Nope Corsair PSU and Case :p
I've read the settings..  That's weird for that guy..  All those setting are the same as mine..

Turn OFF "USB legacy mode" in BIOS if you are still running Windows 10.

Report
I have disabled USB Legacy Mode and also turned off fastboot.  It seems to have fixed the issue.  But I will continue to monitor it and will report back if the problems arise again..
 
Thanks so much for everyone's input.

Update Report
 
The problem is still there.. But with the changes made at least now it's around 75% that it will boot, the rest of the time it is just hanging and waiting for me to hit the reset.  And every time after the reset it has never hung.

Sound like it is hung on finding something to boot from and then after a while it finds your boot drive.
Is your OS Drive set as the First Boot Device in your Bios?
If not using your raid rom then turn it off or disable it in your Bios.

Yes the OS drive is set to first drive..  I just disabled CSM completely see if that might help.. I will look for the raid settings didn't notice it what it was set to before..

Do you see a Raid Setting Rom when your computer boots up?
Your Bios may look different.
If not using your raid rom then turn it off or disable it in your Bios.

I have solved the long boot issue.
In my case I found that if you disable CSM it does nothing to improve long bios boot cycle.
CSM option: "other devices" I disabled UEFI and changed to legacy. Fixed the long boot.
I now hit Windows 10 splash screen in 3-4 seconds, fully load Windows in about 8-10 seconds.
Hope this helps you all.

That is to bad that I cannot make them changes on my AW R4 as their are no Bios Settings to change.
That is the norm for a Dell Computer now a days.

I am booting off a 500gb SSD in UEFI and my Classified K splash screen sits on for at least a minute. I tried changing it to LEGACY but didn't boot. Maybe I will check CSM when it bothers me enough.
 
Must mention that my board beeps 4 or 5 times every start up too. The long screen is only problem.

If the beeps are fast, it is normal. It will beep the number of times equal to the number of devices you have plugged in. I have only a usb keyboard and mouse and so it beeps twice. But if they are slow beeps it's indicative of a problem. As for your boot issue are you on the latest BIOS?

Ah then if those are USB beeps then the post I saw about changing only CSM "other devices" to LEGACY it might speed this up. I will try it for science and report back the outcome.
 
WOW that started quick. I fixed the long boot with what I said. I will report back later on after I test it for the weekend!
 
LEGACY CSM devices setting has had no problems all weekend. Will probably keep it like this cause of quick boot.
