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.
This option creates an additional pre-boot delay.
• 0 seconds (default)
