z490 ASUS-Apex Boot Issue

[nosam1g]

Mine is already on Smix .. gonna try a few things tho

Ok actually u have to enable Intel Rapid Storage memory ..
Then it gives you an option for Sata Interrupt .. it was already on smixed..

That looks like options for Raid Control for the m.2 drives .. not sure how that would relate to my boot??
I took pictures of why i couldnt find it initially

pictures are to show you have to go into SATA Mode Selection in order to get that SATA interrupt option..

yep looks like you are right.. If I use msi on my raid setup it takes ages to boot.. I use msix or legacy it boots correctly. Well I gave it a try. I will continue to look at this along with my problem. I still have a suspicion it's bios related in some way at least for my problem.

By the way, did you mount your ssd's on the dimm.2 or onboard. On board if I read it right shares the pci express slot with your graphics card making it 8X not 16X.

Just made this video of my issue

For your issue and both mine i think im going to just put my PC in sleep mode instead of shutdown. That may be a temporary fix.
I have my EVO m.2 in the RAM m.2 slot and i have a corsair on the board right above the gfx card. I was thinking about that when i placed the corsair m.2 above the gfx card and hope that my gfx card get x16 .. ill have to try taking it out. Only reason why i put it above my gfx card is because it has heat sink on it and cant go into the Ram m.2

Your pc atleast boosts how it should.

I also found multiple issues with booting etc with the z490 platform . Im thinking they will release a new bios or patch to get the bugs fixed. This is common with new technology

Update*** Even after taking out the corsair m.2 that is above the gfx card.. The boot time still elapsed to 1-2 mins, I did a 3 trial run. The first two boots were 1-2mins BUT the nividia driver was registered. On the third attempt no nividia driver. Therefore ruling out if the corsair is interfering with the x16 needed for the gfx card. Ironically i put the m.2 back in , and it booted within 10 seconds and nividia driver registered. So im back to pulling my hair out Lol! Hopefully it stays that way..

I got around to making a video

To me it looks like a memory training issue or some kind of boot issue/instability. Do you always get the disk check like in your video?

I would try MRC FAST Boot Disable and MCH FULL Check Enable and see what happens.

Under Advanced, ON Board Devices, LED Lighting have you tried setting it to Stealth Mode when Sleep/Soft Off?

[bscool]

It is a good practice to list the current bios you are using to help identify issues. I have tried 403, 062, 607 and I haven't had any issue with those on the Apex Xll.

Also listing all bios settings can help identify issues. When in the bios with a USB formatted to FAT 32 go to Tool, Load/Save Profile, CTR+F2. Then you can post the settings and someone might be able to identify something.

No the disk check came after i did a Microsoft update lol . i have it turned off now.
If it was boot instability it would let me know in POST and it would not go any further. I really think its the GFX card , because the spindle loading i think it is trying to find the gfx driver before logging in. As you saw in the video it does then pick it up after i login.

Ill try ur suggestions once i get back from work. Ill try to take pictures of a lot of the tabs.. What are the main things to check .. I have built a few pcs and i have never had to change bios settings after i installed a pc. my bios is 607

When in the bios with a USB formatted to FAT 32 go to Tool, Load/Save Profile, CTR+F2
Can you explain how to do this .

You might be right, but if it was the GPU driver how would overclocking the ram fix it? Or maybe I misunderstood.

As for how to save the bios settings I don't know how to explain it better. You have a USB stick and follow those steps and it will save them to the USB as a txt file then you can post them. But it is not a big deal. Try the MRC and MCH setting and see what happens.

When you say you overclocked the ram did you just enable XMP or manually change timings and voltages? XMP over 4400 put the voltages super high. ON my APEX Xll VCCIO is 1.46 and VCSSA is 1.672 just setting XMP for the higher frequency's above 4400. That might be ok long term but I wouldn't do it.

Also when getting over 4000-4133 just enabling XMP doesn't always work. Usually I have needed to go in and make changes. Pushing 4400+ using just XMP is asking a lot. The motherboard manufacturers are not there yet from what I can see.

When in the bios with a USB formatted to FAT 32 go to Tool, Load/Save Profile, CTR+F2
Can you explain how to do this .

Also in your video description you say that is with no overclock but when booting it says right on the screen 43% overclock is set. So something is not right. Did you hit F5 in the bios to load optimized defaults?

Edit I see you said you also did it without an overclock.
