Sorry all I have been away for a bit, I suffer from stage 4 C.O.P.D - Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, only 21% of my lungs are functional and when I have a bad day it can last a week. Okay, finally after three years ASUS are finally taking notice, for a starter in relation to this board...

NP Ill give it a shot. If it works then Ill throw it ASUS's face and have them fix it on their end so they can't complain that its not an "official bios"

I wouldn't need to go to the extent of flashing the bios with a programmer it's a dual bios system with the ability to switch. What I don't get is why you are showing a guide for flashing with 3rd party hardware video bios or is the guide device agnostic? I am also trying to understand how just...

For some reason I couldn't see my own message, and have ended up with a double post.. The two options that kick off the message.. Turn Fast boot off and Boot Logo Display off. The painful thing is - whatever it is that is an EVALUATION COPY seems to be interfering with the population of the...

While attempting again to restore system boot image from backup I began having problems again under the ROG Zenith Extreme Alpha 2501 BIOS and I now know exactly what the cause of the previously mentioned EVALUATION COPY is. Under BIOS settings if Fastboot is disabled and Boot Logo Display is...

I again this evening went to restore my system image ready to update to Windows 11 and I had plans also to add Linux as a 2nd OS but the EVALUATION COPY message is back. This time I decided to track down the cause and am slowly whittling away at what option kicks it off, so far I reset the BIOS...

It is, on the Zenith Extreme Alpha it was supported through DOCP as EXPO had not been invented at that time. If you look at the motherboard Manual for my X670E for example you will find it support both XMP and EXPO.

The fact is that if I use ASUSs fan control software it eventually detects the CPU temperature as being negative some stupid value, turns off the CPU fan and never turns it on again, when I asked ASUS about this they said it was because the Noctua fans I was using didn't report correctly to BIOS...

Not updating BIOS habits but the fact that there is so much more to support with regards to Agesa because intel decided to go it's own way so AMD now has to support EXPO and XMP. I was referring to this "Many times people update their BIOS just because it says "improved memory compatibility"

On the other side of things intel didn't help, there was a specification brought out for DDR5 in which AMD and Jedec were involved, so initially were Intel and Micron, it was called ORS, Overclocking Ram Specification, it laid out a system for overclocking ram which could be used by all parties...

That's a but ruff, one of my pet projects when I first got the 7950X3D on that Aorus X670E Extreme was trying out different DDR5 Modules from various manufacturers, the most successful I had was an underclock/overclock - depending on how you look at it where I took a set of GSKill modules rated...

Well I know with my Gigabyte board which had problems with it's GCC software I lit afire under them and they had it fixed within seven days because I really ramped up the pressure and made life uncomfortable, one of the bugs I made them fix had been in the software for five years and they'd done...

You guys both muse have had some really bad luck with BIOS's - this is the first time ever that I have installed a BIOS to correct a problem and had an issue with the BIOS, if and when I have needed to update a BIOS it has been a matter of install it and go, no ifs, no buts no maybes. In saying...

If you read back instead of only looking at the latest post you will find that I do know about my board having dual BIOS, there was an option in the motherboards BIOS to do it which I didn't know about, there is a button on the back of the PC which would have achieved the same thing the problem...

I can't be positive but if I remember rightly the BIOS flash for this machine and I mean sheesh I just did it this morning you think I'd remember -must be my grey showing, that the BIOS gets burnt in for 50% of the flash and then gets read and compared against the original for 50% of the flash.
