So I noticed when I first purchased my motherboard and configured full, native UEFI (Windows Fast Boot, etc.); that the options to Press DEL to Enter Setup, F12 to Enter Q-Flash never appeared. I've been wondering if their existence in later BIOS revisions is a result of Gigabyte implementing a hard timeout for 'legacy' users to not get confused about how to enter the BIOS from a Windows 8 machine.
Does anyone have any information on this? If it's true? Or why it takes 'so long' to get through POST?
I've got full native UEFI configuration, Secure Boot on, CSM off, GPT Partitioning, SSD, No encryption. Partial startup on USB devices, etc.
My timing concern is only with the POST (or whatever it's called these days in the new UEFI process)
And when I mean 'so long', I'm really just wondering if there's a way I can cut that off because I just don't want to see it. And if there's an associated hard coded timer, to nuke it.
