    Hi guys,
    Got a X250 (dual battery, HDD, 8GB) - just one weird issue. There is a 30 seconds delay / before the bios screen shows (after I press the power button). The keypad lights up once, then not again until 30 seconds after. Everything on the laptop seems fine. Bios is the latest, running all the latest drivers, battery / memory, motherboard seemed to have passed the diagnostics.

    Have tried to remove both batteries / reset the bios / different HDD, there is still that 30 seconds delay.

    Not sure if anyone has experienced this?
