screen does not appear.

Enabled / Disabled
Quick Boot Mode
This BIOS feature allows you to decrease the time it takes to boot up the computer by
shortening or skipping certain standard booting procedures.
If enabled, the BIOS will shorten the booting process by skipping some tests and shortening
others. In addition, it will also perform the following to further speed up the booting process:
• Spin up the hard disks as soon as power is supplied (or as soon as possible)
• Initialize only critical parts of the chipset
• Read memory size from the SPD (Serial Presence Detect) chip on the memory
modules
• Eliminate logo delays
If disabled, the BIOS will run the whole gamut of boot-up tests.
It is recommended that you disable this feature when you boot up a new computer for the first
time or whenever you install a new piece of hardware. This allows the BIOS to run full
diagnostic tests to detect any problems that may slip past Quick Boot's abbreviated testing
scheme.
After a few error-free test runs, you should enable this feature for much faster booting.
