Hi all,
I got this MB and was able to install a bare Windows 10 Pro x64 with UEFI 1002. Had no problem to recognize the 4x16GB sticks, I was so happy after reading so many incompatibility tales!
After that beacuse of reasons I had to leave it unplugged for 2~3 weeks; then yesterday when I tried to resume the installation it wouldn't start (MB LEDs were on, but CPU fan wouldn't spin up). Clearing CMOS and resetting CPU/Heatsink wouldn't help.
So I tried UEFI 1201 via BIOS Flashback; it started ok and was able to boot to Windows. Then I moved the MB to a case (before I was doing it all sitting on the MB cardboard box), just to find it wouldn't start again! Tried a beta UEFI from here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1624603/rog-crosshair-vi-overclocking-thread/15900#post_26106654 and was able to start Windows again.
I left it unplugged last night and came today to find it wouldn't start again. Checked the back panel BIOS Flashback LED and it was flashing (didn't touch it). I was preparing a USB drive in another PC to do the BIOS Flashback again, then when came back to see the back LED wasn't flashing anymore! I hit the Start button and it booted to Windows w/o problem.
So the only thing I can think of is: Is it because the MB battery hasn't had enough time to charge? Or is there some setting I am missing? UEFI settings are default, haven't even tried to modify anything yet.
Setup:
Asus Crosshair VI Hero, UEFI 1002, 2001, 9943.
Ryzen 7 1700 w/stock heatsink.
HyperX Fury 2400 4x16GB.
Crucial SATA SSD.
Corsair RM750X PSU.
nVidia GT210 (I know, I'm waiting for GTX1080 to arrive).
I would appreciate any feedback, I've searched for similar scenarios but nobody mentions this behavior after UNPLUGGING their MBs.
Cheers!
