ASUS P5Q-E (P45) pre-view

[FinnEire]

I'm not sure if you meant cold boot (from an off state) or if you meant reboot in your post... My system will boot fine, but fail to boot again after it's booted into windows and restarted from there. That's just damn odd and something I cannot understand.

Try loading BIOS defaults, install BIOS 12.01 and afterwards clear CMOS as a step. 14.02 unstable for me.... just recently went back to 12.01 and it seems better than 13.06 was. So may variables with hardware combinations may have your experience differ from others.


------ Still the same behavior? Try some of these separately to narrow things down: -------

Set GTL to Auto, No C1E, speedstep, read train, static read etc. PL level conservative (12 or 13) with moderate, light or lighter driving.

Set vDIMM close to manufacturer recommended level with eye toward possibility it may be overvolting somewhat. Eg. 2.1 rated set to 2.04

Set default cpu multiplier and different bus speed achieving like overall frequency as a test

RAM in different slots
