I just put together my new rig. Everything seems to work great except it takes a seemingly long time to boot.
The computer consists of: Opteron 170, MSI K8N Neo4, XFX 7800GT, 1 GB OCZ GOLD series memory, Antec 500W NeoHE power supply, WD Raptor 74GB.
Once it boots the performance seems good. It games good and seems to benchmark good against compareable systems. I have tried both 6.66 and 6.7 nForce drivers and have tried both the Microsoft and Nvidia IDE drivers and nothing seems to help.
My roommate has a computer with the same MB and HD but a 3700+ Athlon64 instead of the Opteron 170 and his computer boots in approximately half the time as mine. I will try to get more exact measurements in seconds soon but for now does anyone have any suggestions to try? Thanks.
