anyone else with promise ultra66 and long boot up delay?

ever since i swapped out my be6 with a bf6 and promise ultra66, there is a 20 sec pause on the startup screen where the little blue thing scrolls across. when the status bar is in the middle, both it and the scrolling blue thing right above it freeze for about 20 seconds.

I have experienced that also. My screen would also go black for a second. I've had to reinstall since then and it doesn't happen anymore.

OP
this is doing it after a fresh install.... maybe its just a driver problem. hopefully new ones will be out soon.
