So I did update the BIOS on this replacement motherboard to the second most recent. (The one it shipped with was the first after the Beta) All is working fine. All drives found, windows and a couple applications installed. I think I'll hold off completely transitioning to this machine for a...

Thanks guys. So the Version 1002 (02/25/25) lists what seems like important changes. I don't know if it matters, I but have 2*DIMM memory at 6,000. 1.Updated AGESA to PI 1.2.0.3a Patch A. Please update the chipset driver to version 7.01.08.129 or newer to enhance gaming performance in select...

OK. So I re-assembled the machine with the new MOBO. Both SSDs show up in the BIOS. Current Version is 0825 11/29/24. There are 3 versions since then. The latest is Version 1022 dated 03/07/2025. Should I update? Here is what the ASUS site says. Version 1022. 1. Enhanced system performance with...

Nope. Did not work. What happened was I cleared the CMOS, restored the BIOS, then started the computer. The BIOS showed the both SSD drives. Yay! I begin Windows install, and the machine restarts at some point -- I'm not sure if it was a Windows install required start of some sort of hang --...

Ok. So I got a new PREDATOR 2TB drive. I installed it. The BIOS found it. Great! I then restarted to install Windows, chose the drive. The install began, and then quickly restarted, and now the drive is no longer visible in the BIOS. I'm try clear CMOS. rolling back the BIOS, and if that does...

Swapping slots means disassembling the machine as the second m.2 is under the mobo and I'm reticent to do that. Wouldn't just installing different drives answer this? I tried 3 other drives in this m.2 slot. Two were not recognized by the bios. At present, this Motherboard m.2 slot 1 will not...

That was really to test the drive worked. And I guess it confirmed the drive was good. I see reference to clearing the CMOS. Is this something that could be related?

So here is my procedure since my previous post. 4. On forum advice, in Disk Management I assigned D: to the Samsung in in the enclosure and I was able to see the Windows install on it. 5. I put it back in the machine m.2 slot and It was again not recognized by the motherboard. (which...

In my diagnostics I upped the delay to the 9 sec max.

After fighting this trying to avoid taking apart the computer, I finally gave in. This is what I did. 1. I removed the Samsung 2T drive, put it in a USB m.2 enclosure an plugged it into my other computer. It was not recognized by Explorer. However, Running Disk Management found it. (Disk 2 in...

So I've been building this machine and had it running fine. Windows is installed as are several apps. I just started it up now and it goes directly to BIOS. In the BIOS I see the boot loader is missing, and the OS drive (Samsung 990EVO Plus 2TB) not listed. The data Drive does show in the BIOS...

So my machine has three drives, one of which I was problematic. Every time there was a crash, it was trying to write to that drive. On startup after a crash, the machine would always do a drive repair on that drive. I feel like this happened after the machine got hot. The drive is a m.2 SSD on...

Thanks. I'll try switching to the CPU header. I've scoured the BIOS and the only thing I found was the disable the "Wait for F1" which enabled me to install Windows.

So the machine is up and running. Thanks to all who have patiently helped. My last question is about a CPU fan error on start up that says to hit F1 and go to the BIOS to solve it. Initially this gave me problems installing Windows as every time it restarted it it hung at the initial BIOS...

Thanks. I swapped cables then monitors. Now the machine has fired up. There was some sort of error message I think corrupted fTPM (I think) whatever that is? It said hit Y to reset and I did. Now I'm in the BIOS trying to remember whats next. I know there is an updated BIOS for this...
