    Hi Guys
    i have SONY VAIO VPCEB4C5E,
    After Having Liquid Spilled on my Screen, it was not working for few hours,
    then i took to local repair and they did it worked, so everything is working fine. However i doubt that, when i press Power Button, it tooks about 7-8 seconds to start loading SONY LOGO and then WINDOWS 7 comes up, as i remember, Before it got spilled, and prev time, on pressing power button, it was loading LOGO immediately max 1-1.5 sec, i'm afraid.

    This is happening at shutdown as well, after pressing shutdown, firstly a Black screen appear for a few seconds and then my vaio is shutting down., I guess there is something changed in Bios, maybe by Local repairers.

    Please be advised, Thanks, Levan.

    maybe try F2 during boot-up to check the BIOS. In there, check the first boot device is "internal hard disk drive" (not optical drive or external drive, etc). Then save and exit the new setting. (The shut down part that takes longer... i am not sure about this.) Good luck.
