    0d error on GA-AX370-GAMING 5

    Was this ever resolved? I am getting exactly the same problem on my motherboard, and I know it's not to do with RAM.

    ASUS UX52V turning itself down when the bass kicks in

    I'm trying to figure out why my ASUS UX52V turns itself down markedly when the bass kicks in. It's almost as though the driver is capping the power level to the speakers. I've installed what I believe is the latest Realtek driver for the machine. Anyone know what might be going wrong here?

    Sabertooth 990FX corrupted flash data?

    Replaced the battery but the problem remains - I also reflashed the BIOS with the latest one but that hasn't fixed it either.

    Sabertooth 990FX corrupted flash data?

    My Sabertooth 990FX is showing an odd message when powered on after a period of being off - something along the lines of: "The data in the EC or EC flash might be corrupted", and then it says the computer will shut down. I can clear the error by resetting the BIOS (removing the battery etc), and...

    P6T WS Pro cannot boot from SATA drive on SAS port

    Does anyone know if it's possible to boot Windows from a SATA drive connected to a SAS ports on the P6T WS Pro? I'm trying to test if the port is working but I can't boot Windows with an SSD plugged into that port.

    295X2 water cooled - one GPU running 12C hotter than other.

    Switched to a 360mm rad. One GPU maxing at 55C and other at 50C now.

    295X2 water cooled - one GPU running 12C hotter than other.

    I tried removing the block and wiggling it around. Some bubbles come out and gradually worked around to the res, but after refitting it, the temps are still the same: 74C and throttling on one GPU; 65C on the other (while mining).

    295X2 water cooled - one GPU running 12C hotter than other.

    I didn't fit the block myself, so feel free to savage that. The loop only includes a 120mm EK rad and an EK DCP 2.2 pump and bolt on reservoir (only the graphics card is in the loop). I know the 120 is pretty small but it's much thicker than the 120mm rad that the 295 comes with stock. Could be...

    295X2 water cooled - one GPU running 12C hotter than other.

    I've just hooked my 295X2 with EK water block up to my first water cooling loop, and all seemed well, except that when I started working the card hard, the first GPU is getting up to around 75C, while the second GPU is around 62C. Could this be incorrect fitment of the block, or maybe something...

    Windows has lost a bunch of icons - how to fix?

    Hi all, I'm messing around with a Dell L702X which has a copy of Windows 7 on it that is behaving very strangely. All the drivers are installed and the devices working, but some of them (for example the wireless connection) that should have icons appearing in the system tray do not. The...

    Corsair link cable has killed my motherboard???

    I've been bench testing a Rampage IV Extreme motherboard with a Corsair H100i cooler, but when I switched off to hook up the Corsair link cable to one of the USB headers, then tried to turn back on again, suddenly the machine would not boot any more. The PSU is going through a cycle of switching...

    MSI GP60 keyboard gone crazy

    I have an MSI GP60 for which the keyboard has stopped working properly - only about half the keys on the board work, and these are all scrambled to type the wrong characters. I have checked the language settings, and these are correct. Also, when the laptop is booting the same keys (e.g. Del)...

    6850 crossfire vs 7850

    I know this is long since dead but what is with these BS 'don't go with crossfire because a single card is better and will allow you to crossfire in the future' answers? You guys probably said that when he upgraded to the 6850 and will probably say it again when he's thinking of crossfiring the...

    So, for example, would this mean that this board won't work with it? http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P9X79_PRO/#support_CPU
