I wonder what's going on over at Asus US.
I have been trying to update my BIOS on one of my machines and for 4 days now I can't seem to do it.
I have tried to use ASUS AII Suite to do a direct "Upgrade BIOS via internet", no go, the server will not answer or connect.
I sits there blinking dots to me for hours on end.
I have called ASUS direct via phone to support staff, only to spend hours talking to level 1 techs that should be passing hamburgers out at Mc Donalds.
Not only can they NOT speak English good, they speak like they are from a Mex ghetto. Slang used like rappers. Jive??/ talking...
So I asked to speak to a level 2 tech, same thing only rude.
So I downloaded the BIOS and put it on a FAT formatted 2GB flashdrive.
No good, system says BIOS is corrupt.
Tried again and again and again.
4 DAYS now... no help at all from ASUS.
Except the level 2 hamburger pusher tech or supervisor, as he told me, did say I could just BUY the BIOS from Asus Estore for about $10.00
Then I heard the level 1 tech laughing in the background.
Funny, the EStore has been down for days now. Something about a site update.
Update for the past 4 business days?
Come on, somethings wrong here. What's wrong with ASUS or is it just me?
I can't believe this all.
