Power supply surge detected, Asus anti-surge. After new BIOS update.

[SubZeroFlsh]

I just updated my BIOS, and I get the anti-surge message when I boot my PC. I have an Enermax PSU and I am really hoping I don't need a new one. Shoud I disable it if it wasn't happening before the BIOS update?

Any assistance is appricated I will respond frequently.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Most of the time , it's a glitch and needs to be disabled.

See if it happens again.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

Thank you for your response Blackbird.

I disabled the anti-surge, and it just went through an endless loop of restarting. I hope my components are OK.

You can reset the CMOS , COMPONENTS SHOULD BE FINE YOUR PSU isn't that bad.

Check your voltages with HWINFO.

Why did you update the BIOS?:

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

Before the update, I got blue screens sometimes when I first entered the desktop from a system boot. It usually will happen when I try and run a program soon after the desktop is shown. The blue screen displays drivers causing an error. I looked online and people said the best thing to do would be to update your BIOS, as far as I am aware my other components have the latest drivers, apart from the motherboard it still had the release version at this time.

So I update the BIOS are here I am now. I tried CMOS and no luck, I am not experienced in how I can check the voltages, however I will try my best to check for you.

Thanks Blackbird for your help, Asus said to get a new PSU. If you saying it possibly isn't bad then I will do everything you suggest to get my system running again.

Here are my specs if they will help you:
Motherboard: ASUS H97-PRO
CPU: Intel core i5 4690K
PSU: Enermax 650W EIN650AWT
8GB Corsair ram
GPU: STRIX GTX 970

This system is very new and I am hoping the PSU hasn't fired anything or something like that.

It would be awfull if I borght a new PSU and I still got the issue. ASUS have said otherwise but I don't believe the PSU is completely broken, I am.really stuck as in what to try.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

The only way to know for sure is if you had another PSU to test with.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

I am afraid I don't have one to test, I looked in the UEFI BIOS, and the voltages are very stable and normal. I am really confused, I backflashed the update and the same results.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

The only definitive way is another supply.

Sometimes it's the answer but not always.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

Shoud I order a new PSU then? Is it my best bet of getting my PC back and working. Also I disabled the Asus-anti surge and it just went on an endless reboot.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I would get the new PSU , just because it may work, and yours is just average.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

If I order one and get the same error, would it be the motherboard?

I just hope when I get one this will be the solution and hopefully my motherboard is OK.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

[SubZeroFlsh]

Wow, that is defiantly the one I am getting. Thank you soo much blackbird you have saved me a lot of money. Just out of curiosity why not any in the list? The one you suggested is just perfect, so thank you

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

Also shoud my motherboard still be fine?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I think it's fine.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

But of everything I could do, the power supply replacement is best thing I could do, and what you would do? Because I really hope it will fix this issue.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Wait till you get the PSU to test with.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

Do you think that PSU you linked above in amazon is the best one I can get for the money?

Or this?

Sorry for being undesicive but I want to make sure I am making the right decision.

Thank you for helping me so far Blackbird.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Yes it's a great deal on a solid PSU.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

OK, I think I will order it in a moment. I just really hope this will be the solution. I will do a but more research before my order.

 

[SubZeroFlsh]

I found this one, I can't deside between the CM and the corsair PSUs. For my it is a difficult decision I was wondering if you can make it easyier as you know a lot more about them then me.
