What is "Verifying DMI Pool Data" Screen

[forumdude123]

My pc boots fine, but there is a black screen that comes after the post screen that says" verifying DMI pool data, with a lot of information above it. It lasts for 5 seconds, then it continues to boot normally. Can anyone tell me what this screen means, and if there is a way to disable it to speed up my boot time (currently 40 seconds). Nothing is wrong with my pc though. Thanks for your help.

its related to settings in the bios,i have seen it with computer that have a dead bios battery, the bios info was not getting saved ,check this site out ,you would do method #2 in my opinion . if that doesn't work then maybe you have a dead bios battery on the motherboard
