My Rampage x48 issue on boot

I need your help guys, yesterday I had some problems with the computer I formatted my 120 GB SSD vertex 2, now when i turn on the pc the Republic of Gamers logo appears as if slowly freezes and goes like lagging.

After the rest is completely normal and is quite fast. I put everything in default no overclocking for now but I can not understand why it is slow in the animation of the Republic of Gamers logo.

I can not update the BIOS, AFUDOS application tool from asus does not support 64-bit based systems.

My system is showing its age because of incompatibility with the new software, I'm just waiting for the socket 2011 i will change the processor/motherboard cant' wait !!

Thanks alot for your attention guys

I tried it, not seeing the logo i see the BIOS POST AmericanTrends etc, sorry but i can not tell you exactly which writing could tell that there is an error

It works well but wound up with the logo enabled was more quickly.

LCD Poster, I never connected it did not seem useful to me, do you think the error is reported ?

I had a similar event happen, but it was with an OCZ Vertex 2 90GB. Sytem would post/boot slowly (seemed to be locked up or in slow motion).

Try removing the connectors and reconnecting them on the drive(SSD). Fixed my odd booting problem.
I believe it had something to do with the controller's recognition of the SSD.
Also, you may want to flash to the latest firmware(1.35), if you haven't.

I just did this, the SSD works a little better too.

Yep thank you, i did that.

Updated the BIOS with EZ flash and my USB stick, i never thought to use it...

But now has been very useful and i solved the problem, no logo lag is smooth and most important is boot fast .

BIOS was damaged or corruputed i had upgraded a long time ago but not the last release.

Thank alot to all !
