    Ok first off I have an hp pavilion a6234x with an Asus p5lp-le (leonite) mobo.
    I am completely new to bios anything. All ive every done Is updated my bios to Phoenix 5.23 from the hp installer.
    My question is how safe is it to install a modded bios using the hp installer?
    Also is it as easy as the update was?
    Will I be able to skip the post? Or is there a way to make my bios a uefi?
    All I am looking to do it reduce my start up time. I already have a SSD and my time is down to 39 seconds right now but I'd like to see it a little faster since most of my boot time is spent in POST.
    Thanks
