I just finished building my new PC. Core 2 Duo w/ an Asus P5N-E SLI mobo and 2 gigs of ram. Unfortunately, the bios screen takes forever to load. It literally takes 30 seconds to get away from the "press DEL to enter BIOS" screen and another 30 seconds to load XP. What gives? I've searched thru the BIOS to see if I could cut down the load time, but no luck.
Also, Im having a heck of a time getting connected to the internet (typing this from another computer). I keep getting the "limited connectivity" message from my network connection. I tried calling Comcast, but they were no help. It seems that my ethernet doesn't want to accept the default IP address. Is that normal?
Anyone have any advice on how to handle these two issues?
Thanks in advance!
