man thats a bummer... i didnt have the board for long.. but from the time i had i was in love with it!

i hope you get that fixed.. cuz its a shame if you don't!

and possible way of calling asus and getting a new bios chip for it (that is if you know how to replace the bios chip.. and it is not soldered on)... i know they sent out chips for their craptastic 680i's that constantly had corrupt bios... i don't see the harm in asking for one for your motherboard now
