Hi

I have a weird issue for some times :

When I power up my pc it startups, shut downs and then boot normally

I tried to modify some option in bios yesterday in the boot section and seemed to do the trick but not untill today

The only workaround I found was to enable windows fast startup but I don't want to use this one

Any ideas?

Thanks

If you have XMP enabled, it´ s just your board training the "tertary timings" for your RAM.
It shouldn´t happen anymore if you don´ t cut power to your PC after shutting it down.

Well I have XMP indeed and seems that it's still doing it, any way to fix it?

Thanks

Using Cpu-Z read what are the memory timings and mem. frequency set by XMP, then disable XMP in bios and set the same timings/frequency manually.

So I should put that and keep the voltage and that's it, disable XMP?

I also set up vccio and vssa at 1.12 on auto it was very high

I mean that double boot issue isn't the cause of an issue or saying that something is wrong?

Nope. As stated already it's just your motherboard setting ram timings and rebooting. If you leave the power on to the system while it's "off" it shouldn't have to set the timings each time you power on.

if it's bugging you the logical way to fix it would be when it's booted and run CPU-Z to get the timings and voltages and manually set them in the bios, although should double check the voltages just in case they are on the high side.

So some trail and error is all needs to be done.

Well I put back the bios to default and enter my setting almost one by one and seem that it was ERP enabled that was causing this issue. Can I let it to disable?

You have a high overclock and you had enabled a powersaving feature. That is a logical answer.

On previous Asus builds, I had issues with XPM that bwent away with a bump in DRAM voltage. In 2 instances , I wound up turning off XMP and inputting the SPD RAM settings manually and that worked.

Reading this thread shows disabling ERP in the Bios stops the double boot issue at least for Asus Motherboards.
