The boring memory test is part of the POST.

If you wish to change the POST you need to change the BIOS settings, to tell it what to check and what not to check. Nowadays you really don't need a RAM check every time.

If you do not understand this answer it is probably a bad thing for you to try, without learning a bit more about BIOS and Boot-up procedures.

Some BIOSes do allow you to change the BIOS screen but I've never used one and think it's a bit risky anyway. Our POS Dell boxes @ work show their logo.
