    My computer got a weird problem, I works fine before.

    Every time I turn on the power, I have to wait 8-15 mins to hear a beep and the computer begins to POST. After the computer startup, it works just fine.

    Since the computer works fine after startup, I do not think any component got problem.

    How can this happen? It works fine before.

    Please help.

    Thanks.

    Dave

    NOTE: 1. I have tried to remove every peripharals (only leave cpu, ram, videocard) and the problem still exist.

    2. Reset CMOS, the problem still exists.

    I think it might be having some trouble detecting a device? try setting the default BIOS settings.

    It could be that your CMOS battery is stale. You might replace that and see if your results change.
