    If you're referring to the start up in Windows, then go to your MSconfig and go to your startup tab, then disable it from there (you may need to disable it in your non-Microsoft services, as well).

    But if you're trying to disable the splash screen during POST, and you've disabled it in BIOS, then I'm not sure where to go from there.

    As for the duplicate Intel splash screen, I've heard this is common (even if it is kind of annoying).

    I can't disable "Bigfoot Network Boot" either. I can only disable the prompt until a cold reboot, but even then it still boots twice before booting from local devices.

    Flashing the BIOS is possible, but I've had the same results on the old and new BIOS.

    Bigfoot wireless cards have quite a few issues - despite them being very capable performance wise.

    Give them a shout out to see if perhaps there is a firmware upgrade or workaround.
