Ok guys. Turn this option I circled to "OFF"or "Disabled" and it should fix the keyboard disabled on startup. It worked for me.

Well a few weeks back i up-date to a new case(cooler master HAF932) and water cooling(cooler master Aquagate Max) here a few pic.
Thats SWEET Merk... I'm jealous!! :D
nice clean set up Merkk1. Great looking case. How is the quadfire treating you?
Thank you guys .
Well crossfire been good to me i started with with a 2 card setup ran that for a few months than move up to a 3 video card set up . I ran that for a few months then when to the 4 card setup and it been running trouble free for me .The real truning point for my setup was when i update my mother board to my Foxconn a79a-s +sb750 on my old DFI board with the sb600 i was having hit and miss with the ATI drivers after changing over to the new board + sb750 every driver 8.6 on up have install trouble free and work good running vista-64 . I realy think ATI make there drivers for vista frist Xp is a after thought for them now . The cooler master HAF932 case got to be one the best case out on the market right now and new egg has the case on sell right now to http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119160 this case make it easy to do a clean setup on your rig .
Oh sh#t! I've been jonesin' for that case....it's so damn nice! The Egg's got it on sale for $120+SH (and tax for me, crap), but haven't pulled the trigger.:(
/edit.....OK. merkk1 already stated the sale at NewEgg. Got so exited when I saw it, didn't read all the posts!:D
Anyone know if this board is going to support Phenom 2's?
It should, even the older boards with SB600 are supporting the AM3 CPU's so you should be all set with just a BIOS update.
Well I'm asking because I seen this http://forums.vr-zone.com/showthread.php?t=359460. Then another guy on a different forum emailed foxconn and asked and they said "We do not plan on supporting those or have information about it at this time" so I'm kinda pissed.
I e-mail them last week and have not heard back as of yet i send a new e-mail on monday . If they don't i be realy piss off to ChrisB17 .
I was looking at the site they don't even have DFI boards listed and you know there going to support Phenom 2 940 cpu .I e-mail Foxconn again so hope to have a e-mail back by tomarow .
Foxconn tech support is fail. I keep asking them to update the bios for the keyboard issue and they keep blaming it on my hardware and OS. Damnit foxconn come on.
Anyone have any news yet if these will supports denebs?
Saaya works for foxconn, maybe he can help get you info
I am also concerned about this, but since the Deneb power requirements aren't awful... it should just be a minor bios update. I have read somewhere (here?) that the next level down in the Foxconn MB's does not "recognize" the Deneb chip but it works fine even without a bios update. (And it overclocks very well too.)
The Foxconn is not like when I had my Gigabyte DS5 board and the company decided to not bother officially supporting the 9850 or 9950 because they had some problems with the power regulation. The Gigabyte DOES work with my 9850... but I have a chip that is on the border of being "bad". I had to underclock the NB to 1.8Ghz to get it stable on that board. With the Foxconn... if I give it added CPU PLL voltage... I can get the NB to 2.2Ghz easily. But the Gigabyte didn't have that setting.
ALSO: I don't know if anyone else has seen this... but I always have to go back to STOCK on the NB speed when I update the Catalyst drivers or it won't see my second video card in Crossfire. (I read they may have fixed this issue with the newest driver beta.)
Well in my e-mail to Foxconn all they would tell me is that it take time for the cpu team to make sure it will work with the mother than come up with the bios update . In the same e-mail i also ask are you going to support Phenom 2 (940) cpu yes or no .They didn't anwser on the last part so i don't know what going to happen .
I was wondering what your debug LED says for whoever is running this board. Mine says 40 and I have no Idea what that means. It used to say AA.
Here is a new bios to support deneb.

Actually....
I'm thinking... and being drunk that is dangerous: But generally when I make a decision drunk... I follow through. Unless it is a bad idea.
Anyway... I'm thinking about getting a Danger Den black series case. (DUH: Of course WITH a complete Danger Den water cooling system which includes my Crossfire video: It would only be about $500.00 or so. I want not only COOL... but also silence. OH. And if it looks really cool... that would be a good bonus.)
OOPS... that is NOT for the A79A-S.
Oh good for us that you failed to put another bold tag around your posts...
Please,stop using bold tags and HUGE fonts and stop requesting benchmarks from members that are tied with the NDA! :rolleyes:
NDA will be lifted on the launch day and it's 8th of January.
