So I took a look at my bios settings, because why not, and I couldn't find CnQ. I'm currently on the latest (2.80) version, and the latest chipset drivers are also downloaded. Was it removed?

I need an NVidia chipset graphics card that can boot with a Legacy BIOS (CSM mode on a motherboard connected to an SSD that is formatted NTFS - MBR), AND ALSO UEFI bios. I found this old thread... https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/will-a-gt-1030-work-with-legacy-bios.3309781/ and in one...

The following error has been preventing me from updating Windows 10 through Windows Update for quite some time (maybe a year or so): "Unsupported Disk Layout for UEFI Firmware". I finally decided to give it a go and try solving it, and to do so, I used the MBR2GPT tool in order to turn my MBR...

Hello. I just bought a used HP Z640, and was in the initial stages of setting the device up at my home. I started by clearing the CMOS, and reverting any changes by the previous owner of the device in the firmware so I could set things up how I wanted them. I noticed that legacy support was...

Hello there. Recently I've moved house, the first time I turned my PC on it booted to UEFI. So I setup some of my custom settings as they had been lost and continued. After shut down I switch the power off from the outlet (this is every day). The next day I turn the PC back on it boots back to...

So, first things first, I HOPE this section is where this goes. If not, I apologize. I wasn't sure where to put it. As the title states I accidentally updated my BIOS. How does one manage to do this accidentally? By downloading all optional drivers that Windows Update suggests while half-asleep...

Built a computer last year for the first time, and thought I'd try this Re-Sizable Bar feature for the RTX 3080. However I ran into a problem, Resizable Bar requires CSM to be disabled, and when I disable CSM my Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2tb M.2 Drive cannot be found in the BIOS at all, with nothing...

Suppose you have 2x 3200 & 2x 2400 Sticks. This is running quadchannel and in general @ 2400mhz since the 2 Sticks are the lowest freq. correct? If you want to run at 3200mhz you'd need to disable/remove the lower frequency sticks correct? If that is the case, is it possible to utilize all...

Swapped over to a UEFI build of win10 with a fresh install (In case I ever use resizable bar). My Ram (4000mhz 16-19-19-39 G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB) is no longer running at the 4000mhz profile I had it at prior to the UEFI install (on legacy bios) and it worked like that for almost the...
