Gigabyte Fast Boot

Gigabyte Fast Boot is a lightweight utility that can be downloaded and become accessible from inside the GIGABYTE APP Center, the latest unified system utility application created by Gigabyte. The APP Center offers users of all knowledge levels easy access to the system utility tools that are separated into downloadable modules, enabling them to download, install and access the modules that they are really interested in.

This approach reduces clutter, provides a unified user interface, promotes user customization, and allows both novices and seasoned enthusiasts with the expanding set of tools that get regular individual updates.

As of early 2024, the APP Center features the following downloadable modules – System Tweaking (Easy Tune, System Information Viewer, and Fast Boot), Networking/Personal Cloud (Cloud Station, LAN Optimizer, and CFOS Speed Internet Accelerator Software), Backup and Security (Smart Recovery 2, Smart TimeLock and USB Blocker) and Convenience (Game Controller, @BIOS and EZ Setup).

Gigabyte Fast Boot consists of a single interface window that features configuration options for enabling fast boot of your PC (Disable, Fast, and Ultra Fast) and enabling fast boot using AC OFF Mode.  If activated, this option will flip the toggle that is available in your BIOS settings, enabling your PC to speed up the boot sequence and more quickly start loading Windows OS. Simply put, this small app allows you to skip visiting BIOS to activate or deactivate this feature.

While this option is supported by the majority of modern Gigabyte motherboards, users need to be aware of the limitations of this system. When the fast boot is activated, BIOS will skip the standard procedure of detecting all the plugged accessories of your motherboard, saving numerous seconds during each boot. However, if your hardware configuration gets changed or some accessory becomes damaged and unresponsive, the Fast Boot option may lead to boot errors.

Gigabyte Fast Boot is a very useful system utility that can help your PC reach the desktop faster after every restart or cold start. It’s fast, reliable, simple to use, optimized for all modern versions of Windows OS, and 100% FREE.

Note: Please install the APP Center first before installing this utility.
