    Acer logo appears 2 times then starts windows.


    Hi to all Eight forums.
    I have recently bought an Acer S670MG or M679G desktop computer with the following specs.
    Intel core 2 due 3.1ghz. 6mb L2 cache.
    6gb ddr3 ram at 1066mhz bus
    Nvidia Geforce 9800GT 512mb/256bits external graphic card.
    1tb SATA WD hdd.
    and I have facing a problem that when I turned ON computer it sounds a beep and Acer Empowering People appears a couple of seconds then display is gone. then after coupe of seconds, again beeps sounds and again Acer logo appears and then starts the windows. can anybody help me why this happens. because of that booting time is much longer.
    P:S. in bios. I tried two hard drive modes. native ide and Raid. third is AHCI I think and this I did not try yet.
    plz help.
    bios. energy or American mega trend.
    Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate 64bits.

    Try this:
    Go into BIOS settings > Boot Tab
    Look for "Boot Setting Configuration" or similar wording

    • Find "Quick Boot" (or similar) and ENABLE it
    • Find "Full Screen Logo" (or similar) and DISABLE it

    Hope that helps.

    Your BIOS settings look fine. You are right - there is no way to turn off the logo.

    I do not have any experience with TPM (Trusted Platform Module). It may be the cause of the odd boot sequence, or not.
    You could try removing the module to test, but please check the manual or do some research before doing so. You could render the PC inoperable if done wrong.

    I would also be very careful making any changes to the Security settings or you could lock yourself out of your own computer. Know what you are doing and why before beginning. I don't use BIOS security, so I can't help you there either.

    More info on TPM:
    Trusted Platform Module - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Initialize the TPM

    My advice: live with it. Unless it is an unacceptably long delay, it could be just the way that PC boots.

    Have you looked inside the PC to see if there is a physical TPM module installed? There is a picture of one in the Wiki page.

    You might also try a ClearCMOS procedure, just to see if there is something not enumerating correctly during the boot.

    Also try disconnecting some devices (External USB devices, the CD drive, mouse) and boot without them to see if any of those things are holding things up.

    that was a nice idea to clearCMOS. I disconnect mouse/dvd drive/hard drive and then turn ON pc. but booting is same as earlier, then I decided try to remove RAMs or changing ram to random slots, and there is coming strange, complicated and real headache for me. this was very annoying. ram thing take couple of hours.
    I have 3x2gb ddr3 PC3-10600 (1333mhz bus) ram. 2 kingston and 1 samsung.
    when I remove 1 ram and other 2 ram is placed in black and blue slot. this could let the pc to "single channel" ram mode. and in single channel mode, the TPM error message is not appears.

    only "checking NVRAM" message stayed on whole screen for atleast 1 minute(its first time only after the ram changing to other slot), and without hard disk my pc not shows the acer logo 2 time, only 1 time and next message is "no boot device". I was very happy to see that and think the problem is solved. but when I connect hdd and other things (without 3rd ram) cover up the pc and start it, then strange things happens, first the pc stuck at acer logo and hang, not any key works numpad led too on pressing numpad.
    turn off and turn on again then a windows message is appear which says boot fail, winlogon.exe corrupt or missing or something like that, (I don't remember this error exactly but I m sure it was windows boot error)
    turn off and on again and go to bios, and without any plan and unconsciously , I turn this "Reset configuration data" option to YES (because its description is about NVRAM).

    turn on pc and I am back at first situation. means 2 times acer logo and then windows..
    .
    many complications is happening, in single channel ram mode. why the hell is boot is perfect without hard disk and with hard disk its 2 time..??
    boot error appears, but then its gone..??
    stuck on acer, but later its not..??
    but one thing I m certainly sure that its RAM stick problem or RAM slot problem..
    what do you say..!
    (I m very sorry for my bad english, and sorry for not the tempo on my lines and paragraphs)

    4 RAM slot and 3 ram stick, I try every possible combination of rams to fit in different slot. it takes many time. in single channel mode. TPM failed did not appear. it appears only on dual channel mode.
    I cannot find TPM physical chip on my main board.

    I am curious about the hard drive. Have you run a hard drive diagnostic on it?

    The RAM issue is just confusing. If it has got 3 sticks (and running in Single Channel mode) it shows the error message, but in Dual Channel mode it doesn't? Do all the RAM sticks match (same specs)?
