Chameleon 2 very slow

[the_diller]

Hi All,

 

Thanks to you guys, I have my system working perfectly! (except DVI) My only complaint is with Chameleon 2rc. Once I get to the Chameleon screen and chose OS X, the system boots very fast (maybe 20 sec). But, there is about 1 full minute between POST and the boot screen. During that time, I have a white flashing cursor. Why so long? On my previous installation attempt, this time was maybe 20 seconds, which I just dealt with.

 

System:

OS X 10.5.7 and Vista SP1

Intel DP45SG motherboard (OCed to 1333mhz FSB)

4GB G.Skill DDR3-1333

Core 2 Quad Q6600

WD Caviar Black 750gb SATA (32mb Cache)

LG CD/DVD-RW

 

I am using the factory bios (0083) and they are up to 0117 at this point, could that be the problem? Every time I upgrade my bios, my Vista won't boot anymore and I have to go back to 0083, so I hope that's not it.

 

Thanks for any advice!

 

Dylan

 

**edit**

I tried flashing the bios to 0118 and it makes Vista stop booting. Flashing white cursor...forever. Tried 5 different bios updates... 92, 102, 116, 117, 118. I flashed back to 0083 and now the delay is gone? I changed my overclock settings, maybe that did it?
