Does Windows 10 have native support for NVMe?

My Gigabyte Z77X-UD4H LGA 1155 motherboard manual and Intel state that RAID should not be enabled in the BIOS on a drive with an existing installed OS. I have 2 Intel 520 series 120GB SSD. So is my only option to erase and reinstall everything on the SSD after I enable RAID in the BIOS?

What hardware does it take to get a windows experience score of 7.9? Without overclocking?

I've tried re-formatting the drive, deleting the drive and creating a partition. During Setup, when at the point where it asks which drive to use, no matter what I've done. Windows says "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See setup log...

I'm new to SATA. I thought it would be simple. Does it matter which SATA slots are used for a Boot drive. There are 8 on my board 4 controlled by Intel ICHR7 and the others by Marvel. Attempts to install Windows result in error message that the drive is configured as Active in the BIOS and...

Thanks for everything

Does anyone know what this is doing? Internet Low-Mic Utility tool ielowutil.exe

I upgraded my Vista Ultimate 64 to Win7 Ultimate 64.. Initially, Win7 would not proceed with upgrade until PerfectDisk 10 was uninstalled. I did that, Still wouldn't proceed.. It also wanted the printer driver to my HP 3030 updated. Did that, still would not proceed with upgrade. Re-booted...

Finally upgraded to LCD monitor. It is currently powered by a BFG GeForce 7900GS OC (DVI to DVI). I don't do gaming so I'm wondering if this monitor would perform any differently with a newer card, like a GeForce 9800GT? Thanks for your help!

I increased memory from 2GB (2 sticks of Corsair CM2X1024-6400C4DHX) to 8GB (4 sticks of Corsair TWIN2X4096-6400C4DHX) in my P5WDG2 WS Professional that is running 64bit Windows Vista Ultimate SP3. MB is not over-clocked. No problems with sleep/awake with 2GB installed. Now with 8GB...

All, I have a P5WDG2 WS Professional motherboard with a BFG GeForce 7900 GS OC installed. This mb supports PCI express. I've noticed that some of the newer GeForce cards names end with 2.0 or 2.0 v. Are these cards compatible with my old motherboard? Thanks for any help

I increased the amount of ram from 2 to 4GB on the motherboard. Using Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit. With 2GB, could put it to sleep and awake. Now with 4GB, put to sleep but cannot awaken. Cause and effect or coincidence? Have not verified that re install of 2GB corrects the problem...

Thanks for your thoughtful response. I've re-cconfigured SpeedFan so the AUX temp is not displayed. Unfortunately, ASUS doesn't have a Vista 64bit compatible PC Probe app yet... but I will submit an inquiry to ASUS Technical Support.

So how does one determine what chip is represented by the AUX?

what temps is 'AUX' supposed to read? ambient? case temp? it isnt your CPU temp, thats core0/1... so putting your finger on the heatsink is pointless. I'm assuming AUX = Northbridge

My ASUS P5WDG2-WS Professional motherboard has an E6600 CPU installed and it is not overclocked. This MB has a heatsink/heatpipe on the northbridge chipset. I have super-glued a 40x40x25 Sunon maglev fan (running at 5600 RPM) to the heatsink blowing air into the heatsink (before I did this...

Same happens on my system!

I've installed a Zalman 9700 on a E6600 CPU in this board. You will be limited in the height of a northbridge heatsink/coollng fan. I superglued a sunon 40x40x20 fan to the asus heat sink (after removing the heat sink cover) and it almost touches the Zalman 9700.

Today, ASUS technical support said that 'grounding' might be the cause of the hot NB and suggested that washers be installed between the screw head and pcb for the motherboard standoffs?

This board has the same heatsink-heatpipe assembly installed on the Northbridge chipset as the ASUS P5B-Deluxe and the P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP motherboards. Touching a heatsink vertical fin for more than 2-3 seconds burns my finger! Has any other user of this board noticed this. My board...

Which BIOS version is installed?

ddd

The Intel Thermal Analysis Tool can display temps of both cores.

This has been reported before and it happened to me with same mobo. My board came with BIOS 0206. I called ASUS tech support and they sent me a new BIOS chip 0307. Everything worked fine after removing 0206 and installing 0307. Also, do not use NOS, it just doesn't work. Change BIOS...

I've done that with an intel cpu, i.e., removing the heatsink with cpu stuck to it and not having release the lever locking system. I released the lever, put on new thermal compound, reinstalled cpu and heatsink and it worked fine.

My P5WDG2 WS Pro does the same thing.

I should have mentioned that this occurs under no load at the desktop.

It is an E6600 and according to TAT, CPU 0 is typically 3C warmer than CPU 1.

Thanks!!!

Directing airflow vertically from a fan to the top or the bottom (pcb side), which one would be most effective in cooling hard drive. In my situation, horizontal air flow (end to end) is not an option..

P5WDG2-WS Professional. It is one of Asus Mainstation mb's. It has two PCI-X slots.

Which BIOS do you have, 0206, 0307 or 0408?

You are correct, I have a P5WDG2-WS PRO. So I did mis-read the original post, but my board has the exact same problem. I apologize to all, sorry:(...
