Anyway, it randomly started to work about 10 min ago.....w/e :confused:

do you have powered USB hub attached. I do. maybe that's the problem....

Didn't matter what I had plugged in....whether I used 0 ports or 6 (three being hubbed). Just randomly started working :confused:

Completely borked my OS now with the sound card settings....set AC97 for front panel and I can't get my X-Fi to not crash windows any longer, lol.

I think you need to register to RMA no ?

And vice versa is a common latin phrase... so if you natively speak a romance language you should be a little embarrassed for asking.

It means the other way around. So if I were to say, apples are not oranges, the statement oranges are not apples would be true. I can shorten this by saying apples are not oranges and vice versa.

It can be abbreviated 'v.s.'... so apples are not oranges and vs.

Hi, I've read the notes in first page, but still I've some questions:

1) The mobo suffer of cold boot strating the system or rebooting it? Like P5B Vanilla (and maybe P5WDH) do...

2) What's the average limit of the FSB with a stock mobo?

Thanks.

I press f1 :D

2dredd, those low latencys doesnt make a huge difference. It is not worth that high voltage and extra watercooling (according to signature).
For example, my gskill hz do 500mhz @ 2.15V, 5-4-4-12, higher freq is much more important than timings.

==================

issue solved ( i think :P)
I had an uknown device in hardware panel , many others too. After i installed all drivers it was still there. So i just let it to be unknown.

Yesterday, i installed pcprobe, and somehow; now i dont see the unknown device anymore.

Try pcprobe, and let me know /:)

the unknown device in device manager is an asus chip used to read the temps.. drivers for this dive are installed with probe or ai booster... so install 1 of this 2 to get rid of the problem..

I`m going from P5W to P5B E+, what i like to know is if it is possible to port my Raid 0 from ICH7 to ICH8 ?
Anyone done this already ?

You don't actually have to install any of these packages if you don't want to. All you need is to extract the Asus ACPI drivers from the archives and point your device manager in the right direction.

He meant; the P5b-D doesnt have all those tempsensors as the xtremestriker.

Confirmed!!!!!

Those, who have an uknown device in hardware panel, just install probe or Ai booster ( i have only tested probe) .

Just posting because i got a new P5B-D wifi from an rma and the cold restart thing doesn't happen anymore. I guess it is a motherboard problem as the setup was identical on both boards.

can some one please answer this question.

In bios on all 3 of my P5B deluxe boards that i have tried in bios when you go up or down with settings it is like slow(slide show effect) and refreshs page slow, only started happening.

What is the cause of this. could it be that i have bad ram or something?

i found out this because i had a friends drive i wanted to copy data off so i thought simply to plug his sata drive into my board which was raid0 but the damn board couldnt even see it no matter what i tried in the bios as a seperate drive. how crap is that!

I added another sata drive to my system that I already had up and running with Raid0 without any issues.
