P4P800 Deluxe takes long to boot

It takes unusual long to get to the screen where you select system to boot.

The sequence and time taken:
1. Asus logo screen, stays there for 30 seconds
2. Via Tech screen, stays there for 5 seconds
3. Blank screen with a cursor, stays there for 35 seconds
4. Windows system selector (I have dual boot)
Compare to all the systems I have worked on, this one takes the longest
(with the fastest processor).

I wonder if I have something set up incorrectly.

Thanks for any sugguestions,

Hi,
my P4C800-e Delux takes anywhere from 30 seconds to 3+ minutes to boot.

As yet I've been unable to figure out why.

Hi,

Use the correct pata/sata settings in the bios.
Mostly set it to pata-sata (not pata only) if using pata disk.

if no sata is present, try to set ide to master slave setting rather
than cable select...or viceversa...
