Thank you!!! I was able to enter the bios by unplugging the cpu fan header, which made the boot sequence stop to tell me about it so I could enter the bios. Once inside, I found that CSM was indeed disabled. Upon re-enabling it, everything seems back to normal again. I wasn't even aware that it...

I recently completed a Ryzen 3600 build using a Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) and a Radeon Vega 56 graphics card. Everything was working great and normally until I decided to upgrade the stock Steath cooler that comes with the 3600 to a DEEPCOOL GAMMAXX 400. Now, the computer seems to...

Several more phone calls have since been placed to Asus. They called my wife back today to say that they have no idea of the status of our laptop, or when it will be fixed. They have left us in limbo now for over a month. This is truly the worst customer service experience I have ever had with...

I've been a fan of Asus motherboards and laptops for over 20 years, and this is not the company that I remember. My last Asus laptop had barely been out of warranty when it fried it's motherboard. At the time, Asus was quoting me too high of a figure that made sense, so I reluctantly bought...

I'm putting together a custom server for my dad's business that will run ESXi. Is there any real difference between a so-called server case or a gaming case that I put a Icy Dock hot-swap cage into?

I just updated my Asus P8P67 Pro board to the new UEFI 1302 bios. It booted up fine, then I shut down to clear CMOS and move my 2 hdd's over to the Sata3 connectors while I was at it. Power back on and I am suddenly getting the long beep followed by 3 short beeps for no VGA detected, and no...

Has the Sandy Bridge flaw put p8p67 bios updates on the back burner? We still need updates to fix this buggy board!

I have 8gb ram and only about 1-1.5GB in use typically.

I have the 2TB models. Would they be so bad as to cause occasional pauses lasting up to 20 seconds? I've had it where the OS would sort of freeze for about 20 or 30 seconds while it was doing something and couldn't even browse the web. Brian

On my new Sandy Bridge setup, I currently am running Windows 7 off of what will be my permanent raid1 data store until my SSD arrives. I have 2 Samsung F4 drives plugged into the Intel Sata 3g ports (ports 3 & 4) in a raid1 configuration. In Windows 7, the raid array feels really slow and pauses...
