Fast Boot This option can speed up the boot process by

bypassing some compatibility steps:

• Minimal — The system boots quickly, unless the

BIOS has been updated, memory changed, or

the previous POST did not complete.

• Thorough — The system does not skip any

steps in the boot process.

• Auto — This allows the operating system to

control this setting (this works only when the

operating system supports Simple Boot Flag).

This option is set to Thorough by default.
