Just to update, i switched ram to Mushkin 1600 and the issue has been resolved.

Hi, i have the ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 motherboard and a FX-8150 processor, the issue i have is the memory score on WEI is only 5.9 with 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) Corsair 1600 DDR 3 memory, how do i increase the memory score without overclocking? I changed it to 1600 in the bios. All scores are 7.7...

Actually Intel says it installs set to AHCI or RAID, they recommend setting it to RAID for maximum flexibility in the future and it enables AHCI as well. I will set it to AHCI the next new install though as i am not running a raid array and have no plans to do so.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I guess i'll have to set it back to raid.

I originally had Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit installed as Raid and had Intel RST installed, i have since switched it "on the fly" to AHCI and the RST service wouldn't run. The problem is the same on 2 identical Asus Sabertooth X58 motherboards.(i tried an repair of RST first on both PC's and...

After reading the manual it says to wake up from Power Saving Mode press a key on the keyboard, I've been pressing a mouse key, maybe this is the answer.

It's not as bad with the default (2006) Windows 7 monitor driver but i still have to press the space bar and move the mouse and sometimes turn the monitor off and on or change the cable from DVI to HDMI. There must be a hidden sleep built into the monitor or something, i disabled screen...

It's not so bad if i use the Windows 7 default monitor driver, i'll know when i get home in a few days.

When i let Windows 7 blank the screen, you know like after say 15 or 20 minutes it blanks the screen (in power management). If it's left for a few hours or overnight then it doesn't wake up which is very annoying, and the only way to use the monitor/pc is to press the reset button.

I have tried everything to get this POS monitor to wake up from blanking, i've tried HDMI and DVI, it will blank but never wake up, i even tried to disable Windows 7's screen blanking and just use a screen saver and it still won't wake up. I also tried turning the monitor off at night and it...
