skyic3 · Nov 4th, 09, 05:16 PM

hi guys,
I bought my asus max formula this mobo last week,
but seem to be have some problem using that mobo with win7.
so i have change to mobo to P55A-UD6 last 2days,
I notice that, when i install window, it load and took alot of time, like almost 5time slower than the max formula.
then when start up and off com that time, its not really that fast. like kinda slow.
can i know its like this one, or there is problem?

Hi...

Read your post yesterday but didn't reply as we wanted to test it out and see for ourselves... the booting seems fine from our side... the loading time is normal...

you might want to load Bios default and try again...

let me know how I can help

Best to try new BIOS still cos this is a very new mobo and usually the early BIOS releases need quite a bit of fixing till the bugs are squashed.

flash? how?

MacClipper · Nov 7th, 09, 01:14 AM

imo, best is to use thumbdrive. Gigabyte mobo has Qflash so actually very easy and almost fool-proof. Check your manual for details or read this,
Q-Flash

HTH.

And be noted that the USB flash drive or hard drive must use FAT32/16/12 file system. how to know my tumbdrive is all tt?

Well, most thumbdrives are formatted as FAT by default unless you had reformatted it. Just give it a try lah, Qflash makes it too easy.
