Default [7VTXE] Don't like F9 BIOS

Hi all!

just to share my experience:

last week i updated from F8 to F9....=20

Then at first I had several difficulties to get into windows loading =
screens.... many times it hung after the device enumerating screen

Finally i checked this and that in BIOS, and i could start, but after =
some days i noticed that the BIOS always takes longer to load...

Right after the RAM checksum, it hangs a little before displaying the =
harddrives... about 3 seconds more then before...

But the reason to get back to F8 is also that i have had more crashes in =
one week then ever.. (always during video or audio editing...)

Now i'm back to F8: faster loadin, and no crashes so far....!!

I'm I the only one?

now when I had the F9a (beta) bios it hung a little like you say on the post
screen but not in windows. it also would try to say memory test but all i
would see would be "ry test" for a few seconds and then it would go.. the
final F9 seems to have corrected that.
