Hello! Your boot time has changed noticeably over the past few days. After about 1.5 minutes, the BIOS logo appears before nothing, and the VGA light turns red. Once the BIOS shows up, the red light fades away and everything functions properly.

You might want to check if the system is overheating or if there are any loose connections. This could be related to dust buildup, power issues, or a failing component. Keep an eye on it and let me know if you notice any further changes. Thanks for sharing your setup details!

Verify if your BIOS retains configurations across reboots. Ensure the device isn't disconnected or powered down during transitions.

I rarely disconnect the computer, so it stays on all the time. The cool part is that sometimes it starts up in under 35 seconds today, though it doesn’t happen every time. I’ll look into the BIOS status while doing this.

I had a thought to test the USB device connected to my computer and discovered the Apple MagSafe charger (Type-C) was preventing startup. Eventually, my PC started working normally. Thanks for your time, @atxcyclist!
