Long bios load time with gtx970 - maybe need gpu bios update?

I just installed my gtx 970 and it all runs fine. However I get a very long bios load time on boot up. Normally it only takes a second or two with a single beep. With the 970 though I get the single beep and the bios load screen, but it sits at that screen for a long time, then another beep, waiting, eventually another beep, and after some more waiting windows will start to load.
My problem is that now I can also no longer get in to the bios. I have tried even plugging in a ps/2 keyboard to see if maybe that could get me in. The farthest I get after hitting delete to enter is I just end up at a black screen. My mobo has no onboard gpu output, so its not like its trying to go to a monitor I cant see.
So would any gpu bios updates fix this? I am currently at the latest bios for my board which updated it to a uefi bios.
cpu: i7-2600k (yes Im aware I will only have pcie2)
mobo: gigabyte z68 d3-b3
ram: 16gb
gpu: MSI gtx 970 Gaming (previous was an evga gtx 660)

Under bios features, is there a option called boot mode select?
Try to switch to "legacy only", save and reboot.
Are you using HDMI connector? Try to use DVI.
Sorry for my english!
I dont remember seeing any boot mode select. As far as connections I am using all DVI for my monitors. I have also tried only having a single one connected in case there were issues with multiple monitors

with those old boards, you need ME8 to works with modern cards
ask gigabyte support about it
Thanks Ill try emailing them. Is ME8 some other bios? Just never heard of it before
-edit
After reading up it looks like it was just a revision to allow ivy bridge devices, which happened a long long time ago on a bios update:
Support Intel 3rd generation 22nm E1 stepping CPU (Ivy bridge)
Improve power on issue
Update ME / CPU code
Unless theres something else Im missing about ME8

Very long applet load time with JRE 1.5 - HELP!!

My applet is taking forever to load and init using JRE 1.5.
With JRE 1.4.2_06 it takes a matter of seconds to load and init. The same 1.4.2_06 compiled code running on JRE 1.5 takes ~ 17 minutes!!! Is anyone having a similar experience? I've seen other similar posts related to past plug-in versions, but nothing related to 1.5. The same problem occurs if I compile the code with JDK 1.5 and run with JRE 1.5.
This extreme example happens on a 533 MHz Win2000 pc with 524 MB RAM.
A desktop with 3 GHz P4, 1 GB RAM running WinXP SP2 doesn't have an appeciable delay (a couple seconds).
A laptop with 2.21 GHz AMD Athlon 64, 512 MB RAM running WinXP SP1 takes about 8 seconds to load the applet.
I don't believe it's running yet in the init method during this long wait time. I don't see any print statements, but the basic layout of it is the following:
     public void init()
          applet = this;
          // Setup Look and Feel
          try
               UIManager.setLookAndFeel (UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
          catch (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException e) {System.err.println("Error setting Look and Feel.");}
          catch (javax.swing.UnsupportedLookAndFeelException e) {System.err.println("Error setting Look and Feel.");}
          catch (java.lang.IllegalAccessException e) {System.err.println("Error setting Look and Feel.");}
          catch (java.lang.InstantiationException e) {System.err.println("Error setting Look and Feel.");}
          // Setup background coloring
          HeaderFile.bgcolor5 = UIManager.getColor("Panel.background"); //new Color(212,208,200);
          HeaderFile.bgcolor6 = UIManager.getColor("desktop");
          applet.getContentPane().setBackground(HeaderFile.bgcolor6);
          // Splash screens
          urlSplash = getURL("AesGuiLarge.jpg");
          ImageIcon_Splash = new ImageIcon(getURL("OmniViewSplash_noWords.jpg"));
          ImageIcon_OmniView = new ImageIcon(getURL("OmniView_wordOnly.gif"));
          // Setup Intitialization panel
          final InitializationPanel initPanel = new InitializationPanel();
          contentPane = getContentPane();
          if (preRelease == true)
            Label label = new Label("PRE-RELEASE");
            label.setFont(new Font("SansSerif", Font.BOLD|Font.ITALIC, 11));
             JPanel panel = new JPanel();
               panel.setBackground(Color.yellow);
               panel.add(label);
               contentPane.add(panel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
          contentPane.add(initPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          Thread initialize = new Thread ()
               public void run()
                        System.out.println("\n***** Initialize thread start *****\n");
          initialize.start();
     }Any help would be appeciated.

I've discovered where the bulk of the delay is coming from.
I have 23 default *.properties files in my project. These files contain the English translation of all displayable strings for Internationalization (I18N). The default naming convention is "text.properties".
For those who don't know I18N, here's a brief synopsis of what happens. ResourceBundles are used to get the strings that are displayed. if your local computer's language/regional settings are English/US, then when the ResourceBundle searches for the file that contains the strings it first looks for a file named text_en_US.properties. If that file is not present or the string is not located, it then looks for a file named text_en.properties. If that file is not present or the string is not located, it then looks for the default file named text.properties. My properties files are all default named.
I used the Java Console tracing capability to see what was happening and this is what I saw. This is happening for every .properties file:

None of the files in these traces exist. JRE 1.5 is attempting to set cookies on each of these non-existent files. There is approximately a 5-8 second delay that occurs before each attempt times out. So for each of my 23 properties files this translates to 575-920 total seconds (or 9-15 minutes).
I tried turning off cookies, but the timeout still occurs.
Can anyone explain why this is happening and how to fix it?

Long Image Loading Times From LR to CS6?

Hello Folks,
I seem to be experiencing very long image loading times when loading an image into CS6 from LR4.
When I right click an image in LR4 and select edit-in CS6, CS6 immediately starts up, and loads. But after CS6 is fully up on my screen, I get
a spinning ball first, then spinning white/grey circles, until my selected image appears within CS6.
I am operatinng with an iMac 27 2.8G with 8G of memory and using SL 10.6.8 I have about 300G of free space on my HDD.
Any ideas or suggestion or settings in CS6 I might need to look at would be appreciated.
I never experienced this issue as I recall in CS5.
Jim

Curt,
Thanks, yes I do have the latest version of Snow Leopard, which is 10.6,8 and it is updated with all of the latest updates in drivers.

MuVo2 load time with long playl

I recently purchased a MuVo2 because I liked the form factor and sound quality. The small size of the display wasn't going to bother me because I plan to make liberal use of playlists for driving and what not. I created a playlist of approximately 300 MP3s using Windows Media Player, but when I tried to play it, the MuVo2 would hang. After a few tries I realized that the MuVo2 wasn't freezing, it was just taking a (really, really long) long time to load the playlist. When I pared the playlist down to about 20-30 MP3s, I got the load time down to an acceptable time. However, if I put the same 300 MP3s into a folder and just played the folder, the load time was also acceptable.
My question is: Is the long load time due to the fact that the MuVo2 is a hard dri've based player? If I swapped out the 4GB hard dri've and replaced it with a 4GB compact flash card, would it take the same amount of time to load long playlists? My guess is that it's not because of the hard dri've, because I used to own an iPod and didn't have the same problem with long playlists.
Thanks for any help!

It's most likely WMP.
Try Creative's MediaSource software, and I've also heard good things about using MediaMonkey with the MuVo?.

Extremely long song load time

Hi all,
I have a couple files I'm currently working on that take very long to load, one of them over an hour. I'm using 5 or 6 audio instruments, some have the "Play" plugin, which may contain a few patches on different midi channels. Also, I have an Ivory Piano plug on one of the channels and 3 or 4 audio tracks. There are no frozen tracks.
Any ideas why it would take so long to load these files? I don't feel I'm using many plugs since I will need to use more for more complex projects.
Thanks,
Cobb

Hi,
Thanks for responding. Yes, I have no choice but to wait. I have to get the song loaded so I can work on it.
I have a lot of drives, but all the files related to the project are on a fast internal drive. The next step is to disconnect all my drives to see if that helps. Maybe one of the plug-ins is causing the problem. I can load the file without plugs and maybe try turning some off to see if the file loads.
I force quit Logic and tried again. It's been 50 min so far and the arrange window still hasn't loaded. It will load eventually... I hope. When it does, I'm going to bounce all the software instruments to audio and start a new file.

Any reason for the long sporadic loading times during reboot

Hi guys,
Just wanna find out more abt my experiences of encountering long loading times during a restart (up to 5mins). I do see the apple logo and the spinning wheel and it spins for like 2 mins, moves on the an all blue screen and fixed there for another 1 min and then the loading OS X meter. I suspect that the long loading time could be the cause of new softwares that I've installed or that I didn't reboot for days. Anyone care to share their experience and views on this? Is this normal? I feel that its long because usually restarting only take 1min or so to reach my log in screen.

15 seconds for a restart here ... something's not right with 2-5 minutes.
- If you login as another user does it take as long?
- Have you run Disc Utility and Repaired Permissions lately?
- What about running the Daily and Weekly 'chron' jobs? (OnyX or MacJanitor etc)
- Have you got haxies or similar extras in your StartUp folder?

Very long portal load time in IE

Hi,
I have few users who reported that our portal was running really slow. Using HttpWatch (http trace tool), I learned that their browsers were taking three to four times longer to load portal pages than it should take. HttpWatch also showed that more than half of transaction time was spent on waiting to get response after sending a request to load innerpage inside the framework page.
Now, it gets confusing.
Only these few users are having this problem. They have the same problem even when they logon to someone else's computer and visit the portal. Others who log on to these users' computer and visit the portal do not have this problem. I think this eliminates problem on the clients' computers, network, portal server, and portal configuration.
I don't know where to look to trouble shoot this. Did anyone have a similar problem? Does anyone have suggestions on where to look to troubleshoot this?
Thank you.
Joon,

Hi,
It could be that these users have different Portal Desktops.
Normally Light Desktops loads faster than Default Desktops.
So look into Portal rules to check if these users are assigned different desktops.

Random, excruciatingly slow load time with 7900 Elite small form factor desktops

Hi all, I have approx 300 HP 7900 Elite small form factor machines in my environment that were deployed just over two years ago. from the time of deployment we have experienced on about 50 occasions a random, excruciatingly slow load time that take about one hour for the user to login and open their programs. there has been no rhyme or reason for it, different floors, areas of the building, etc. I searched the forum for similar probs and didn't see one like this, I hope I'm not duplicating efforts from someone else's question... One thing we have noticed is that if we re-boot while it is going through the start-up process, it seems to "make it angry" and will lengthen the overall load time. We use the 32-bit Vista Enterprise OS. This is with a "stock" build, that is to say, our standard corporate build. our security policy does not allow users to install software, by the way. Thanks so much if you can help!

Hi,
How is the issue going? Usually, this error can be caused by missing third-party NIC driver. To solve the issue, we can download the missing network
driver and update the WDS boot image to include it.
In addition to the article provided by Chris, the following blog can also be referred to as reference.

Abnormally Long HDV Project Load Time with CS3

I have a relatively small HDV project, about 30 clips captured with HDVSplit. I find that after the CS3 splash screen goes by and while the project loading progress panel is displayed it takes about 2.5 minutes for the project work space to appear. Everything seems to work fine once the work space is displayed re: CS3 editing functionality.
Has anyone else run into this slow loading problem? Any suggestions as to what may be causing this? The clips are relatively short and the entire sequence on the timeline is less than 15 min.

For Pete's Sake man!
I am new here and there seems to be a few guys that have their heads so far up Adobe's *** that you do not see what you are saying.
I understand Howards frustration.
You people think that everyone must go out and buy All of Adobe's Products. To assume any person must be forced to buy a program they do not want or cannot afford is plain rude and obnoxious.
We are not all professionals like some of you, some of do actually shoot weddings, like myself. Why the heck must I buy more programs than I need (although I won After Effects Already)!!?? If you are all so professional why are you on these forums instead of making features in Hollywood? Dammit I get so upset by some people.
You leave people hating Adobe and their products. I have been reading this forum for about a day now and there is a common pattern. A guy will have a problem, 2 people will complain that he posts on the forums, 3 people will tell him to get rid of his camera, 4 will say buy After Effects or go buy this plugin. It is ridiculous! You are people are insane.
Final Cut Studio is by far a better option, you buy it and it works straight out of the box, no plugins no go buy another application. I am not an Apple supporter is hater, it seems that everyday I struggle with Adobe is one day I consider moving my business to Apple and Final Cut.
Premiere Elements is for kids. I wanted a professional editng program that was able to do it all in one, Adobe seemed to offer this.
Let us think about for a minute lads. It is either PC or Mac, Mac has good points but the initial investment is quite large so let us put it aside for now. PC. What editing software is there for PC. Sony Vegas, Premiere, AVID, Edius, Avid Liquid/Pinnacle, Ulead, Movie Maker, Power Director/Producer, and various others. So what do you chose....
Vegas, just does not have it all you know
Avid Liquid, again it's a bit for beginners
Avid, wow too bg for the guy starting out,
Premiere, the best pick of the bunch,
the rest are for kids and real amateurs.
Buw wait Premiere cannot function on it's own, it needs a plugin to this and a plugin to do that, it forever needs plugins. The only thing it is good for is just SD. I want to edit HD or HDV in Premiere I must go buy Cineform, what a load of crap. I want to do basic little effects,go buy After Effects, I want to colour Grade, go buy this or that plugin.
The cost of Premiere is fairly good, but before you can use it you need to buy After Effects (for effects simple and advanced), Photoshop (for titles), Cineform (well to edit anything actually and to support formats and proper 1920 x 1080 HD 4:4:4 uncompressed), and add that all up and it costs a shitload.
So that leads us back to Final Cut Pro where it all makes sense. You buy one G5, and one Final Cut Studio and it gets the job done all in one wonder. NOBODY OUT THERE CAN ARGUE WITH THE BENEFIT OF THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Now this entire post was pointless since I know everyone out there could not wait to get to the end just they could quote me and argue. You reading this did not even bother to see it from an objective point of view, I know for a fact. Whilst reading you were not listening. So this post was pointless, because nobody will STILL get it.
Disgruntled Adobe End user. I am returning CS3 back to Adobe for a refund.

Photoshop CC 2014 unusual long initial loading time.

Never had this problem with Photoshop CS6.
OSX Yosemite
Macbook Pro Retina 2013
Just bought CC last night, every time I open Photoshop CC, the app works fine for a few second (before the welcome screen popup) then goes into a 45sec - 1min loading, the mouse pointer changes to the rainbow spinner during the period of time and Photoshop isnt responding to any input. After the loading is done, the welcome screen pops open and everything is fine again...its very strange and frustrating.
This is all happening without opening any image files, just trying to run PS itself.
Any ideas?

As you can see from the crash details, your AMD video card driver is crashing.
You need to update your video card driver from AMD's website (not Microsoft or a system builder).

Long file Load time

I have a Captivate video that is about 171 slides long. It
has an audio commentary on each slide.
I did a lot of editing on the video to sync the audio up to
the slides perfectly. I saved the file and closed Captivate.
Now when I try and load the file, Captivate is stuck on the
"Loading project" progress bar. The bar is full but Captivate won't
finish loading. I have tried this several times, letting is run for
a few hours each time.
I cannot load the file. Is there anything that I can do to
recover my work?

This is not exactly "on point" but word is that if the entire
path exceeds 128 characters, Captivate blows. The "path"
description is the full path beginning with root of the drive on
which it is saved (C:\ normally) and ending with the extension (CP)
in the filename.
Just thought I'd throw that out for what it's worth.
The long and short is that Lynn is probably right on about
the filesize being just too large. "ziv" - in the thread Lynn
pointed to had a CP (project) file that was 380 MB. "Redune" in
this thread has stated his project is 171 slides long, which could
be too large, or perhaps *really* too large, depending on what is
in the project and its physical size in pixels.
Sorry I'm not more help - just throwing in a "me too" to
Lynn's observations . . .

Long reboot/load time after update installation... help!

I just bought a new iMac tonight and I installed the updates and my computer rebooted and has been on this blue screen with the circle loading symbol spinning... I don't know if its just stuck there or if its actually loading... its been nearly 2 hours!
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Nevermind =)

Why is it that I can no longer play Real Time with Bill Mayer on my IPad or IPod.

My IPad and IPod Touch software are up to date. This is the first time I have not been able to download; I've been listening to podcasts for several months.
Thanks, Juanita

The latest three episodes, released 20 June, do not play: there is no file on the server. This is his problem, not yours.
