I am installing a brand new motherboard on a brand new build.
I've followed these steps:
1. Download the capconverterutility.rom
2. Renamed that to P9X79.ROM
3. Put the P9X79.ROM onto a sandisk cruiser 16 gb reformatted for FAT32. The file is on the root.
3. Plugged in my PSU and turned it on (not the whole system, just the PSU)
4. Insert USB and hold down USB BIOS flashback button until it starts blinking.
5. Let go and blue light becomes solid.
The solid blue light is not a good thing. It means it didn't work. The instructions say if the light goes solid it's something wrong with the file or the USB. Do you think a 16gb flash drive is too large for USB BIOS flashback?
Everything is plugged in except video card, drives, and memory. I've followed everything else to a T so I can't figure out what's wrong.
