Bios screen, tonyx86 screen and slow boot

[Fifty81]

Hi all,

Last night I completed my first Hackintosh and first ever computer build. Everything went relatively well (small issues getting my GTX 670 working, but that is now sorted out). In my constant reboots and starts I noticed the first thing to always show up is the Gigabyte BIOS screen, from there is goes to the black screen with the tonyx86 logo, then finally to the white screen with the apple logo. At this point it can take up to a full min or two before the computer starts. I am booting from an SSD and would really like to skip the BIOS and tonyx86 screens, start directly on the apple screen and improve boot times. Is this possible?

The newest FakeSMC in MultiBeast 5.2 improved my boot time significantly.

Thanks for the recommendation, I was using 5.1.3 so I will download the new version. Can I just run the new one and install over the old Fake SMC or do I need to do anything else?

Also, out of curiosity, does you computer start with the mobo screen as well, then to the black screen with the tonyx86 logo?

Yes, it should delete the old FakeSMC and install the new one. After its complete, I repaired permissions on the boot drive to be safe. Yes, my computer starts with the bios screen, Chimera bootloader screen, and then OS X.
