Dear All,

minor issue, since my last windows update, when I turn on my computer it goes to to the Gigabyte/David screen, whereby I need to click the "gigabyte" logo to fully boot-up the computer.

Previously I would turn on the computer and it would just go straight to the boot-up completely.

I hope this makes sense, though minor is there a way to fix this?

Regards David

If it happens on boot this is just the logon screen! Athough you can have a screensaver that will be run after for example 10 minutes of activity. You can configure screensaver that it requires a logon password to reactivate normal windows operations. It asks you to logon in that case.

I think it's just a logon screen. Correct? You don't have a logon password?
