Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Has anyone had the BIOS lose all settings and behave as though its been cleared? I flashed to 1616 when it was released and it happened first a few days later, I put it down to a glitch and redid settings. Its now done this three times, nothing to note when it does, just normal start up to find...
Great, always satisfying when you solve it yourself. I tried that RST version, but went back to the previous one because of the memory leak, that was before updating Virtu.
I don't about drivers, but you could try uninstalling, then manually delete the Lucidlogix folder under your user name (C:\Users\yourusername\Lucidlogix), reboot and try a fresh instal.
Failing that put the previous version back. Sorry, wish I could be more helpful.
There is a link to a good version of 1406 here:
http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?id=20120801051000448&board_id=1&model=P8Z77-V+PRO&page=1&SLanguage=en-us
I've installed it and its a good update. New options to give a super fast POST are welcome.
BIOS 1406 has been uploaded since yesterday for the -V Pro, but it's corrupted. The file is unusable. We have to wait for ASUS to realise and re-upload it.
My P67 Sabertooth has died, whilst waiting for RMA etc I want to continue working, I'll sell the RMA when I get it. What would be the best P67 I could buy in the meantime? I'm not planning upgrading anytime soon, just want to swap CPU i7, SSD, 16Gb of RAM etc onto a new board and get on with...
Fair enough, always more than one way to do things, and good we can choose. I like the built in image backup for the automatic daily incremental backups. I also double boot, so if the default restore method caused problems like you describe, it would be easy to mount the VHD image and clone/copy...
Indeed, the only thing that could be worse would be to admit to the same 'accident' on Crucials own support forum...oh, too late. In all seriousness the only course of action is to act dumb (?), and RMA it. We can all make mistakes, if it costs then so be it.
Is the W7 built in backup a suitable image maker? I have mine create a daily backup, and I've restored it to the SSD RAID-0 a couple of times now. I use a a pair M4 128Gb for the array, and as the garbage collection on these drives is said to very good I don't worry about lack of TRIM.
The main...
According to their forums the M4 has excellent GC, Click for link. Its one reason I chose to RAID a pair of M4s. Don't need to give it a second thought.
