Olen jopa itse hämmästynyt siitä peittelemättömästä ydinalan panikoinnista, jota jo parhaillaan päällemme kaatuvat ydinekotuhot täällä netissä aiheuttaa. Oli tosiaan täys ylläri miten SELKEÄSTI ydinlobbaajat lopulta alkoivat oivaltaa ydinalan syyksi nykymaailmamme jyrääviin tuhoihin. Mehiläistuhon...

I was trying to listen to some MP3s on my PC via iTunes, and suddenly I was like "What the heck - this sounds like crap". I was getting random clicking and crackling noises. It basically sounded like I was playing back a badly worn LP. First I tried the same track several times in a row and...

Golly this group has gone quiet lately. This has always been my go-to place for help with my computers, but now...Paul, are you still here? About three years ago I built a desktop machine around an old Asus P5Q Pro Turbo MBO I had lying around and donated it to a local nonprofit. I set it up...

Here's a puzzler for you. I have an Asus P9X79 system which I've been using happily for almost five years now. The other day I pressed the spacebar to start the system, and nothing happened. That's weird -- I always boot by pressing the spacebar, but pressing the button on the case started...

I have a front-panel-mounted drive bay and also an eSATA + USB2 docking station. I have hot-swap enabled for the appropriate SATA ports, but hot-swapping does not work in either: the Prime Z370-A motherboard (BIOS ver. 2001) recognizes when I remove a drive but does not recognize that a...

Is there a way to turn OFF keyboard backlight from BIOS ?

Hello, This seems like a pretty sweet drive to me, especially the 2 Terrabyte version since it won't have any issue's with the 2.2 barrier limit. The only thing which bothers me a bit is it's inward chip design which can be seen here (1) and here (2): 1 (English):

Yes, the ASUS P3V4X supports until 4GB of ECC memory. The specifications about ASUS P3V4X aren't completed correct because it supports memory modules of 1GB so that you can upgrade it until 4GB not 2GB as described here. The operative system can manage 3GB because it needs to use some addresses for...

Paul warned me, but I had all these leftover working parts from the P9X79 MBO that failed and I hated to see them go to waste and I didn't want to spend a lot of money building a second new computer, so I bought a cheap MBO...

I've described my problem before on this newsgroup, and I've received some helpful advice which I considered carefully and ... didn't act upon. But this time, I promise, I'm about to solve my problem one way or another. Back in September, 2012, I built my current computer around an Asus P9X79...

I have a computer that currently has an A7N8X Deluxe board in it. I have one of those software locking programs that looks for the MAC address of the network card. My MOBO is definetly on its way out (hanging, crashing, etc) and I need to put a replacement in. If I trash this board, then I have...

I see from the date of my first newsgroup post on this subject that I've been working on motherboard problems for about two months now. So here's an update for anybody who's interested. My old Asus P9X79: I finally had to concede it has gone bad. Nothing I tried would fix things. A new PS...

I have an Asus Maximus X Hero motherboard. I have the latest version of Windows 10 installed. For the last week or so, I heard a single BIOS/motherboard beep I think every 14-15 minutes, though I only starting keeping track of the time today. I have checked errors in the event viewer and have...

Anyone have an alternative URL ? The official ASUS support page redirects me to Facebook and Google logins (after the privacy page says it collects NO personal information). There used to be a German FTP site ages ago that would allow direct downloads. Does it still exist ? PS The CD that came...

Hello, Today I booted my computer and not long after it frooze, then I rebooted it again and it frooze again. The last time I rebooted all network cables where unplugged and then it frooze again. And now it seems the motherboard/bios (ASUS A8N32-SLI) is dead ?!?

Hi, I have an ASUS H81M-P mainboard and would like to install a new gaming graphic card. Is the GTX 1060 with 6GB compatible? Thanks for any hint! Klaus

Anyone get the SP-2 update for XP? "Is it safe yet"? Rick

I have had this Asus A7n8x-x MB for several months now running an AMD Athlon XP 2200+ (1.8 ghz CPU) not overclocked in any way. I just received an AMD XP 3200+ CPU and I was trying to find some resource on the web to tell me the exact MB settings I should change for this CPU. If I just put it in...

Hi, As I understand it, most ATX style PC setups have a fan above the CPU that blows air down onto the CPU to keep it cool, and the hot air bounces around inside the PC case until it can find an exit (if it's lucky). As I see it, there are two problems with this, a) unless you have a vent in...

A very interesting thing has come up regarding SP2 and the motherboard industry in general. An anomaly was detected in the installation of XP SP2 on Intel 865/875 chipset mobos. After SP2 install most all such mobos from most all mfgs would HANG on reboot. See this post in:...
