Fast boot a little TOO fast.

[Chriz6097]

So I enabled the fast boot option in the gigabyte bios because normal boot takes around 15 seconds... Well fast boot is like 1/1000 of a second and now I can't even get back into the bios to change a few things. Are there any ways to boot into a bios without mashing the delete button?

Not that i'm aware of.... just keep on clicking the del button when you turn it on

There should be a app to boot to bios on the drivers for the page.

Mash Away on the Delete Button.

Can't you just take the CMOS battery out and put it back in to reset BIOS options?

[flibberdipper]

When you turn it on, turn it back off after a second or so. It should make it take longer for the BIOS.

[Cwazywazy]

Use the CMOS jumper to reset the BIOS.

^^^ Or this.

Asus motherboards usually have a Directkey button which boots straight into the BIOS.... But you have a Gigabyte board, so just take out the CMOS battery like Konrath said.

I believe windows 8 has this fast boot thing that when you enable you cant enter bios unless you do it within the OS. so i would google how to reboot into bios (UEFI) from windows 8

@Cwazywazy has the perfect tip for you. Once you clear your CMOS the motherboard will ask you to press F1 to configure the BIOS and bam you are there. Also, just change the boot time to like 3 or 4 seconds and fast boot won't boot won't fast.

I can see how you can't wait 15 seconds for your computer to boot... Man we used to wait several minutes back in the days. Anyways reset CMOS if your motherboard doesn't have a hardware slow boot switch / jumper.

No such thing as too fast, we can go faster. But just spam the button to make it work.

Most motherboards these days use a jumper set to default/reset.
Your motherboard manual will show you where and how to.

I encountered this problem last week. What i did was download [Fast boot] on Gigabyte App center. it has a button there that will restart your PC and go into your bios.

 

Hope that helps

While using the fast boot keep in mind that keep the USB POST & PS2 POST to Partial initalization. This means During the POST the ports to which the usb/ps2 mouse and keyboard is attached will be checked and then the system will boot into os. So you could enjoy fast boot time as well as go to the bios without problems. Also keeping a delay of 2-3 seconds might help a bit.
